Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on flood risk
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area including the Crabtree Conservation Area as well as the setting of the Grade II listed Grandstand and Turnstiles to Fulham Football Club
What decided it
The submitted flood risk assessment failed to adequately address residual tidal breach flood risk and did not demonstrate that basement sleeping accommodation would be safe for its lifetime, creating a conflict with development plan policies that could not be outweighed by the scheme's limited benefits.
