Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling and that of the local area, with reference to the Ravenscourt and Starch Green Conservation Area

What decided it

The incongruous weathered steel material, excessive height and width of the development create a visually dominating installation that fails to reflect the architectural expression and high-quality coherence of the Victorian terraced streetscape within the conservation area, and the limited public benefits do not outweigh this harm.
