Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, having regard to light and outlook

What decided it

The extensions cause demonstrable harm to both the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through loss of light, outlook and garden openness, contrary to development plan policies requiring high quality design and good neighbourliness.

Plan policies cited: Policy D4 of The London Plan, Policy D1 of The London Plan, Policy D3 of The London Plan, Policy SP1 of Newham Local Plan, Policy SP3 of Newham Local Plan, Policy SP8 of Newham Local Plan, Policy S6 of Newham Local Plan
