Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area including the Harlsden Conservation Area
  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties with particular regard to noise and disturbance
  • whether the development makes adequate provision for sustainable drainage and biodiversity measures

What decided it

The development would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area which was not outweighed by the economic and social benefits of the proposal, and the absence of adequate mitigation for noise impacts and sustainable drainage measures.
