Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect that removing condition 2 would have on the character and appearance of the host property and surrounding area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Highgate Conservation Area
What decided it
The absence of any public benefits put forward by the appellant to outweigh the considerable importance and weight given to the less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area's character caused by the prominent stone quoins, which would be at odds with prevalent brick detailing.
The less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area was not outweighed by any public benefits, and the proposal conflicted with the Framework and local policies requiring conservation and enhancement of heritage assets.
Framework references: 212, 215
Plan policies cited: Policy SP11, Policy SP12, Policy DM1, Policy DM9
