Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development proposed on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
  • Its effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at Nos 8-12 Steele Road, with particular regard to privacy, noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal would result in significant harm to both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through noise and disturbance, contrary to the development plan.

The benefits of providing larger outdoor amenity space for the host property were outweighed by the significant harm to character and appearance and the significant harm to neighbouring living conditions through noise and disturbance.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan, Policy D4 of the London Plan, Policy 7.4 of the Ealing Development Management Development Plan Document (2013)
