Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area and the setting of the locally listed Mill Hill East Underground Station building
- The living conditions of neighbouring occupiers on the south side of Bittacy Road by way of any loss of light or outlook
- The living conditions of the future occupiers of Units 2 and 3 by way of outlook
What decided it
The substantial height and massing of the proposed four-storey building would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area and the setting of the locally listed station building, and would result in unacceptable loss of light, outlook and living conditions for both neighbouring and future occupiers.
