Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect on the external appearance of the building

What decided it

The increase in height resulting from the proposal would cause significant harm to the external appearance of the building and great harm to the setting of the non-designated heritage asset (Queensbridge Primary School), which would not be outweighed by the limited housing benefits.
