Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupants of the two basement studios, with particular regard to outlook, sunlight, and ventilation
What decided it

What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy D3 London Plan 2021Policy D6 London Plan 2021Policy H1 London Plan 2021Policy H2 London Plan 2021
