Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the East Canonbury Conservation Area and its effect on the setting of the Locally Listed Buildings at 324-338 (even) Essex Road
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring properties, with reference to outlook and privacy
- whether the proposed development would comply with sustainable design standards
What decided it
The proposal would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the conservation area and would cause less than substantial harm to its significance, which could not be outweighed by the modest public benefits of delivering a single dwelling.
