Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the site and the surrounding area
  • The effect of the proposed development on the setting of the Willesden Jewish Cemetery

What decided it

The proposed development would have an unacceptable and harmful effect on the character and appearance of the site and surrounding area due to excessive massing, bulk, and asymmetrical design that would be out-of-keeping with the homogenous group of semi-detached dwellings in which it sits.

Framework references: 130

Plan policies cited: Policy DMP1, Policy H2, Policy BHC1, Policy BH2, Policy HC1
