Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether prior approval should be granted having regard to the external appearance of the dwellinghouse
What decided it
The additional storey would significantly disrupt the uniformity in scale of the block, tower above neighbouring properties, and appear visually incongruous and unduly tall in the surrounding context, warranting refusal of prior approval on grounds of external appearance.

- Development plan policies
- Policy D3 of the London Plan 2021Policy SP11 of the Haringey Local Plan 2017Policy DM1 of the Development Management DPD 2017Policy DM12 of the Development Management DPD 2017
