Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the Kilburn Conservation Area
whether the proposal would discourage sustainable travel
the effect of the proposal on highway safety

What decided it

The proposal would cause harm to the character and appearance of the Kilburn Conservation Area through partial removal of the front boundary wall, which would disrupt the rhythm and continuity of boundary enclosures that are a positive feature of the conservation area, and this harm could not be outweighed by the limited public benefits.

Plan policies cited: Policy DMP1, Policy BHC1, Policy BT2, Policy BT4, London Plan Policy T6, London Plan Policy T6.1

Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
