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 development on the living conditions of existing occupiers with particular regard to the gardens of 17 Blythe Hill Lane and 50 Ravensbourne Road
  • The effect of the proposed development on highway safety and the highway network

What decided it

The proposed development would be harmful to the character and appearance of the area through its excessive height and scale relative to the modest streetscene character, combined with unresolved highway safety concerns regarding parking provision.
