Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to overlooking and light intrusion
- if there are any material considerations which mean that the decision should be made otherwise than in accordance with the development plan
What decided it
The proposal, subject to conditions securing an acceptable site layout, landscaping and lighting, was found to accord with Policies 12 and 37 of the Bromley Local Plan and therefore with the development plan as a whole.
Framework references: 105, 56
