Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the works/development on the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building, and whether they preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area
- The effect of the scheme on pedestrian movement/comfort (Appeal B only)
What decided it
The harm to the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and character of the conservation area, being less than substantial but considerable, was not justified by the limited economic benefits to the private members' club operator, particularly given the great weight that must be given to conservation of designated heritage assets.
