Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed loft conversion on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Osterley Park Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposed loft conversion would introduce a dominant, non-subservient roof element that would harm the character and appearance of the conservation area and the significance of the designated heritage asset, and the modest public benefits do not outweigh the great weight required to be given to conservation.
