- Inspector
- O'Neill A
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the location, land use and the amount of development is suitable with particular regard to the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers and neighbouring occupiers
- whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the appearance of the Portland and Brunswick Square Conservation Area
What decided it
The amount of development proposed could not be feasibly accommodated on the constrained site without resulting in inadequate natural light for future occupiers and unacceptable harm to the outlook and living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, combined with failure to preserve or enhance the Conservation Area character.
