Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal upon the setting of the listed building, group listed as 371 and 373 Clapham Road
- Whether or not it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Clapham Road Conservation Area
What decided it
The enlarged office building's substantially greater scale and massing would not appear subservient to the host listed building and would harm its setting and that of the adjacent listed building, with insufficient public benefits to justify this harm.
