Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building known as Warwick House or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
  • Whether the proposal would preserve the setting of the Grade I listed buildings Apartment 5, the Palace, Lancaster House and Clarence House
  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the St James's Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would fail to preserve the Grade II listed building Warwick House and the settings of Grade I listed buildings Apartment 5, the Palace and Lancaster House, and would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the St James's Conservation Area, causing harm to designated heritage assets that was not justified by the public benefits offered.
