Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building, known as '18 18A, Sun Street' and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Waltham Abbey Conservation Area and the setting of nearby listed buildings

What decided it

The flat roof's limited contribution to the listed building's special interest, combined with its limited visibility from the public realm, meant that replacement with a modern material would preserve the special interest of the listed building and the character and appearance of the conservation area.

Plan policies cited: Policy DM7, Policy DM9
