Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of neighbouring residents and future residents, with particular regard to outlook and light

What decided it

The proposed extensions would be unduly bulky and dominant in relation to the modest surrounding character and would materially harm the outlook and light of neighbouring residents, contrary to the development plan with no material considerations to outweigh this.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021), Policy D4 of the London Plan (2021), Policy CS.14 of the Merton LDF Core Planning Strategy (2011), Policy DM D2 of the Merton Sites and Policies Plan (2014), Policy DM D3 of the Merton Sites and Policies Plan (2014)
