- Teasdale N
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host property, which is a locally listed building and surrounding area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Ealing Cricket Ground Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of existing occupiers of the accommodation with particular regard to amenity space provision
- The effect of the proposed development on trees
What decided it
The excessive size and insubordinate scale of the proposed building, combined with its contemporary design being out of keeping with the locally listed host building and the substantial reduction in rear garden amenity space for vulnerable residents, created less than substantial heritage harm and unacceptable harm to living conditions that could not be justified by the public benefits offered.
