Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development justifies the need for active cooling
  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host building and surrounding area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Fitzjohns Netherhall Conservation Area

What decided it

The development fails to justify the need for active cooling through adequate thermal modelling demonstrating that all preferred passive cooling measures in the cooling hierarchy have been exhausted, contrary to Policy CC2 of the Camden Local Plan.

Framework references: 205

Plan policies cited: Policy CC1, Policy CC2, Policy D1, Policy D2
