Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal site and surrounding area, including the Woolwich Common Conservation Area
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Woolwich Common Conservation Area, when weighed against the modest public benefits, was insufficient to outweigh the identified harm, and heritage asset protection policies provided a clear reason for refusal under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework.
The benefits of housing delivery and use of previously developed land were outweighed by the less than substantial harm to the conservation area and conflict with design and heritage policies
