Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the supply of family sized housing within the Borough
  • Whether the proposed development would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance and access to private amenity space
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal would result in an unacceptable reduction in the supply of family-sized housing within the Borough, contrary to the clear priority given to retaining existing family stock in the Newham Local Plan.
