Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposal on the living conditions of existing and future occupiers of the appeal building and proposed development with regards to refuse storage, noise and internal space
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal building and surrounding area
  • Whether the proposal would provide sufficient cycle storage

What decided it

The proposal fails to provide adequate internal floor area and ceiling heights in accordance with London Plan Table 3.1, resulting in an oppressive living environment for future occupiers, and insufficient evidence demonstrates that noise from adjacent commercial uses would not harm living conditions.

Plan policies cited: DMHB 11, DMHB 16, DMH 5, D6, DMTC1, DMHB13, DMHB13A, DMCI7, DMT6, D3, H9
