Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposed outbuilding on the character and appearance of the host property and the wider Wellesley Road Conservation Area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of Brandon Lodge by way of noise and disturbance

What decided it

The fallback position of a certificate of lawfulness for an outbuilding on the same site, combined with the limited visual difference of the proposed scheme and the underground location of the gym and shower room, meant the development would not harm character and appearance or neighbouring living conditions.
