Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupants in relation to privacy, internal floor space, private outdoor space, and access
  • Whether the proposed development would provide adequate refuse storage facilities

What decided it

The proposal would cause unacceptable harm to the privacy of future occupants due to the right of way and ground floor glazing of No 154 providing unfettered views into the dwelling, combined with inadequate internal floor space below the minimum standards.

Plan policies cited: Policy SP2.8, Policy DM10, Policy DM10.4, Policy DM13, London Plan Policy D6
