Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building of 26 Wellington Road, or its setting, or any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses; and the extent to which the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the St John's Wood Conservation Area
What decided it
The unbalancing effect of the additional basement level and enlarged rear conservatory on the listed building's grand appearance and internal hierarchy, combined with insufficient public benefits to justify the less than substantial harm to the heritage assets.
