Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Appeal A: Whether the proposed accommodation would provide adequate living accommodation for future occupiers with regard to internal floorspace provision, outlook and light and access to external amenity space
- Appeal A: The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the appeal property and the surrounding area
- Appeal B: Whether the proposed accommodation would provide adequate living accommodation for future occupiers with regard to internal space provision and adequate access to external amenity space
What decided it
Both proposals failed to provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers, particularly regarding access to external amenity space for family-sized dwellings and, in Appeal A, poor light and outlook to one bedroom, contrary to BLP Policies DMP1 and BH11 and London Plan Policy D6.
