Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the location of the development is acceptable having regard to local plan policies
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of residents at No. 42 and 44 Hunters Grove with particular regard to outlook

What decided it

The proposal fails to accord with the development plan as it would be located on garden land contrary to the spatial strategy, would cause significant adverse harm to character and appearance, and would harm the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers at No. 44 Hunters Grove with regard to outlook.

Plan policies cited: Policy CS1(A), Policy CS1(B), Policy D3 of the London Plan 2021, Policy DM1, Policy DM27
