Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Ruislip Village Conservation Area
What decided it
The shop front's failure to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Ruislip Village Conservation Area through its contemporary design, rendered walls, and absence of traditional elements such as a stall riser, combined with the absence of substantive public benefits that would outweigh the identified heritage harm.
