Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 37 and 41 Purcell Crescent with particular regard to outlook and privacy
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host building and area, and on the setting of the Crabtree Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of occupiers of 41 Purcell Crescent through significant loss of privacy due to overlooking from the terrace, which could not be adequately mitigated by planning condition.

Plan policies cited: Policy DC4, Policy HO11, Policy DC1, Policy DC8, HS8 of the Planning Guidance Supplementary Planning Document 2018, CAG3 of the SPD
