Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area including the Mapesbury Conservation Area having particular regard to the design and layout of the dwelling and loss of trees and landscaping
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of 3 Dawlish Road and 29 & 31 Teignmouth Road having particular regard to outlook, privacy and light within gardens
  • the biodiversity of the area

What decided it

The significant harmful effect on the character and appearance of the Mapesbury Conservation Area through loss of trees, landscaping and verdancy, combined with material harm to neighbouring living conditions and net loss of biodiversity, outweighed the moderate benefits of the proposal.
