Planning appeal decision
Flat 2, Regency Lodge Adelaide Road, London, NW3 5EE

The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: whether the removal of the original steel/'Crittall' windows and replacement with UPVC windows in flats 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 21, 100 and 101 preserves the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and whether the significance of the heritage asset is harmed.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the removal of the original steel/'Crittall' windows and replacement with UPVC windows in flats 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 21, 100 and 101 preserves the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and whether the significance of the heritage asset is harmed
What decided it
The public benefits relied on by the appellant were not sufficient to outweigh the less than substantial harm to the significance of the listed building caused by the UPVC replacement windows, and alternative means of achieving those benefits without the harm had not been shown to be unavailable.
the less than substantial harm to the listed building's significance was not outweighed by the public benefits of the works (energy efficiency, living conditions, appearance, long-term conservation), so the balance tipped against granting listed building consent
