Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
What decided it
The proposal would harm the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area by failing to appear subservient to the main dwelling and by causing an inevitable loss of openness on a prominent corner, conflicting with Policies BE1, DMHD 1, DMHB 11 and DMHB 12.
The benefits to the appellant of providing additional living accommodation in an accessible location would not outweigh the significant harm identified to character and appearance.
Plan policies cited: Policy BE1 of the Hillingdon Local Plan: Part 1 – Strategic Policies (2019), Policy DMHD 1 of the Council's Local Plan Part Two – Development Management Policies, Policy DMHB 11 of the Local Plan Part Two – Development Management Policies, Policy DMHB 12 of the Local Plan Part Two – Development Management Policies
