Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupiers of No 1-4 Canal Walk in relation to privacy
  • Whether the proposed development would provide satisfactory living conditions for existing and future occupiers in respect of outlook and daylight

What decided it

The proposed first-floor roof terrace would cause a significant harmful effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at No 1-4 Canal Walk in relation to privacy, conflicting with development plan policy and outweighing the benefits of the scheme.

Plan policies cited: Policy DH(b) of the Royal Greenwich Local Plan Core Strategy with Detailed Policies, 2014, Policy D6 of The London Plan, The Spatial Development Strategy for Greater London, 2021, Policy DH1 of the Royal Greenwich Local Plan Core Strategy with Detailed Policies, 2014
