Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the non-designated heritage asset at 27 Wilton Crescent and the surrounding area, including the John Innes - Wilton Crescent Conservation Area
- The living conditions of the occupiers of 25 Wilton Crescent, with particular regard to privacy
What decided it
The balcony systems cause both unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the heritage asset and conservation area and undue harm to the privacy of neighbouring occupiers, with insufficient public benefits to outweigh the identified harm.
