Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed extension on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed extension on living conditions for occupiers of the flats within Nos 37 and 39 Honor Oak Park, with particular regard to outlook and a sense of enclosure

What decided it

The proposed extension would cause unacceptable harm to both the character and appearance of the terrace and the living conditions of future occupiers through loss of outlook and increased sense of enclosure.
