Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the significance of the Wilton Music Hall Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed development on the significance of the Former St Paul's Church and St Paul's Vicarage, both grade II listed buildings, through development within their setting
What decided it
The harm to the significance of the conservation area and the setting of two listed buildings caused by the projecting oriel windows could not be justified by the limited public benefits, particularly as an alternative permission already exists to replace the windows in a less harmful manner.
Plan policies cited: Policy S.SG2, Policy S.DH1, Policy D.DH2, Policy S.DH3, Policy D3, Policy HC1
