Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of the occupiers of 19 and 20 Tithe Close

What decided it

The proposed dwelling's unconventional design with pitched gable roof and its harmful dominating effect on the outlook of No. 19 Tithe Close, combined with its visual awkwardness in the street context, rendered it unacceptable despite modest housing supply benefits.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan, 2021, Policy CS5 of the Barnet Core Strategy Development Plan Document, 2012, Policy DM01 of the Barnet Development Management Policies Development Plan Document, 2012
