Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Telegraph Hill Conservation Area
  • the safety and convenience of highway users

What decided it

The scheme would fail to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Telegraph Hill Conservation Area through the loss of the front boundary wall and conversion of the front garden to hardstanding, and the modest public benefits would not outweigh this heritage harm.
