Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed painted render to the front elevation at upper ground floor level would preserve the Grade II listed building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
  • The extent to which the proposed painted render would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Kennington Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed painted render would fundamentally and harmfully alter the muted simplicity and authenticity of the brick façade of the listed building, diminishing its historic interest and impairing its historic legibility, with no demonstrated public benefits to outweigh the harm.
