Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the host building and the character and appearance of the area
- the living conditions of the occupiers of the flats with regards to the provision of internal space and natural light and outlook for Studio Flats D and E
- the living conditions of the occupiers of No 329 Lea Bridge Road with regards to outlook, daylight and sunlight
- the effect of the proposal on the occupiers of the flats with regard to privacy and the provision of private amenity space (Appeal B only)
What decided it
The proposals would harm the character and appearance of the area through disproportionate extensions and excessive infilling, would provide inadequate living conditions for occupiers due to lack of space, light and outlook, and would harm neighbouring amenity, with no material considerations outweighing these identified harms.
