Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Walham Green Conservation Area and the setting of the adjacent Barclay Road Conservation Area
- highway safety
What decided it
The unacceptable harmful effect on the character and appearance of the Walham Green Conservation Area combined with the unacceptable effect on highway safety at a busy junction with high accident rates outweighed the modest public benefits of the proposals.
the modest public benefits of the proposals were afforded substantial weight but were insufficient to offset the substantial weight attached to the identified harm to character and appearance and heritage assets, and the harm to highway safety
