Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the proposed development and works would preserve the Grade II listed building known as '31-54, Egerton Crescent SW3' and any features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
What decided it
The heritage benefits of the scheme, particularly the reinstatement of original architectural features and improved legibility of the historic rear façade, when taken cumulatively, outweigh the less than substantial harm to the listed building's significance.
