Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development affects the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The shipping containers in particular, due to their size, bulk, design and general appearance, are an incongruous addition to the appeal site and wider area, whereas the single storey extension by itself is subservient and would not adversely affect character and appearance.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CC1 (Context and Character)Policy CC2 (Urban Design and Architecture)Policy TC5London Plan Policy D11
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
