Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of future occupants of No 26A with reference to the size of living accommodation

What decided it

The loss of the distinctive character of the host building, the reduction in openness at a prominent corner location, and the harmful disruption to the established building line along Richmond Avenue outweighed the consideration of recent similar permissions granted elsewhere on the estate.
