Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 352B Sutton Common Road with specific regard to outlook, and future occupiers with specific regard to levels of internal and external living space
  • the effect of the proposal on carbon emissions and water efficiency

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, combined with failure to demonstrate compliance with carbon emissions and water efficiency requirements, meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan taken as a whole.
