Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including the significance of the Upper Norwood Triangle Conservation Area and locally listed buildings
  • The living conditions of nearby occupiers, with particular regard to outlook and natural light
  • The living conditions of future occupiers, with particular regard to safety in the event of a fire

What decided it

The proposal would cause less than substantial harm to the Upper Norwood Triangle Conservation Area and locally listed buildings through visual obtrusiveness, which would not be outweighed by the limited benefits of the scheme.

Plan policies cited: Policy HC1, Policy DM10, Policy DM18, Policy D3, Policy D12
