Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building or its setting, now known as No 31 Prospect Place, and any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses (both appeals)
  • The effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area (Appeal A)
  • The effects of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of No 32 Prospect Place with particular reference to outlook and natural light (Appeal A)

What decided it

The less than substantial but great-weight harm to the significance and setting of the Grade II listed building was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the scheme.

the less than substantial harm to the listed building's significance, attracting great weight, was not outweighed by the limited public benefits, so the balance tipped against the proposal
