Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and street scene, and whether it would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of Barclay Road Conservation Area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of 1 Effie Place with regard to light and outlook
What decided it
The proposal would harm the character and appearance of the conservation area by creating a disproportionate, top-heavy appearance that fails to preserve or enhance the heritage asset, and the limited private benefits would not outweigh this harm.
