Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers of the house with particular regard to outlook
What decided it
The very limited outlook from principal living rooms and bedrooms due to high-level horizontal windows would have a significant adverse impact on the living conditions of future occupiers, conflicting with development plan policies requiring adequate outlook.
The adverse impacts of granting permission would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of housing supply and environmental improvement, even in the event of a shortfall in five-year housing land supply
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy P14 of the Southwark PlanPolicy D6 of the London Plan (2021)
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
