Authority: London Borough of Haringey
Appeal type: minor · Planning Appeal
Procedure: Written Representations
Development: residential · Change of use
Inspector: Clark L

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the conversion would be acceptable for subdivision having particular regard to local planning policy on conversion within the Family Housing Protection Zone (FHPZ) and issues relating to the effect on the living conditions of future occupants and sustainable travel

What decided it

The proposal would result in unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers due to inadequate external amenity space and harmful noise transfer from vertical stacking, combined with the original floor area falling below the 120 sqm threshold required by Policy DM16.

Plan policies cited: Policy SP2, Policy DM16, Policy DM11, Policy DM17, Policy DM31, Policy D3, Policy D6, Policy T1, Policy T5

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
