Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed buildings 346 Kennington Road and 348 Kennington Road, their setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which they possess
- The effect of the proposal on living conditions for neighbouring occupiers in respect of noise and disturbance
- The effect of the proposal on the local distinctiveness of the area
What decided it
The harm to the special interest of the listed buildings caused by the bay extension, which would not be outweighed by the public benefits of the proposal, combined with undemonstrated harm to neighbouring living conditions from air conditioning noise.
