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 additional storey on living conditions for the occupiers of a first-floor flat within 142-144 Eltham High Street, with particular regard to loss of daylight
- Whether the proposed two-bedroom, three-person flat would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to its layout and external amenity space
- Whether or not the proposed development would make adequate provision for refuse and recycling storage, cycle storage and plant rooms
What decided it
The cumulative harm to character and appearance, neighbouring living conditions, and future occupier living conditions, combined with the absence of material considerations to override the development plan conflict, led to dismissal.
