Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area; including whether or not the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Ladbroke Conservation Area and the effect on the setting of the adjacent Grade II Ladbroke Estate Registered Park and Garden (Montpelier Gardens) and the setting of the non-designated heritage asset at No. 77 Lansdowne Road

What decided it

The rear elevation does not make a positive contribution to the conservation area character, and the proposed replacement design would enhance the character and appearance of the Ladbroke Conservation Area and the setting of Montpelier Gardens through improved fenestration alignment and reinstatement of boundary railings.
