Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • Living conditions of nearby occupiers, with particular regard to privacy
  • Living conditions of nearby occupiers at No 15 High View, with particular regard to natural light and outlook

What decided it

The proposal's incongruous contemporary design and substantially increased rear glazing and terrace would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area and to the privacy of neighbouring occupiers, outweighing any benefits.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 (Optimising site capacity through the design-led approach) of the London Plan 2021, Policy CS1B (local character) of the Harrow Core Strategy 2012, Policy DM1 (achieving a high standard of development) of the Development Management Policies 2013
