Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants with particular regard to internal space, light and outlook
What decided it
The significant harm to the character and appearance of the West Greenwich Conservation Area and the host dwelling, combined with the failure to provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants, collectively brought the scheme into conflict with the development plan and outweighed the public benefits.
