Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the Embassy use on the provision of office space and nearby residents' living conditions and highway safety, with regard to the type and nature of activities and parking and servicing arrangements
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Westbourne Conservation Area
- Whether the proposal would provide adequate cycle parking and cycle facilities
What decided it
The proposal accords with the development plan as the Embassy use would not cause material harm to office provision, residents' living conditions or highway safety, and the roof extension would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area through appropriate design and materials.
