Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area.

What decided it

The proposed development would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area by introducing a bulky, non-subservient terrace that would be at odds with the spacious, detached character of the locality, and this harm could not be outweighed by the modest contribution to housing supply.

Plan policies cited: Policy SP4, Policy DM10, Policy PS2, Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021), Policies H1 and H2 of the London Plan
