Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling, the terrace of which it forms part and that of the local area, with reference to the South Lambeth Road Conservation Area
  • The living conditions of neighbouring residential occupiers with reference to loss of light and outlook

What decided it

The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling as a non-designated heritage asset and the terrace of which it forms part, combined with harm to the conservation area and moderate harm to neighbouring living conditions, outweighed the private benefits of the proposal.
