Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the surrounding area
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of 76 Asylum Road, with particular reference to outlook, daylight and sunlight
  • whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for occupiers, with regard to the provision of internal space

What decided it

The proposed development would have unacceptably harmful effects on character and appearance, neighbouring living conditions, and internal space standards for future occupiers, conflicting with the development plan with no material considerations to outweigh the harm.

Plan policies cited: P13 Design of Places, P14 Design Quality, P56 Protection of Amenity, P15 Residential Design
