Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effects of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers of 85A, 85B and 87 Wellesley Road and the adjacent flats on Chiswick High Road with specific regard to privacy and outlook
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wellesley Road Conservation Area
- Whether appropriate living conditions would be provided for the occupiers of the proposed development with specific regard to outlook, light and external space
- The energy efficiency credentials of the proposed development
What decided it
The cumulative harm to neighbouring living conditions through loss of outlook, harm to the conservation area character, inadequate external space for new occupiers, and undemonstrated energy efficiency credentials could not be outweighed by the modest contribution to housing supply.
