Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of occupiers of 24 Conduit Street in terms of outlook and access to light
  • Whether the development would provide sufficient living conditions for future residents in terms of internal floorspace and the amount of garden
  • Whether the proposed cycle parking facilities would be suitable
  • Whether the development would provide an appropriate number of accessible homes
  • The effect of parking associated with the development on highway safety and access
  • Drainage and flood risk issues

What decided it

The development would cause unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers through overbearing effects and loss of light, and would fail to provide adequate living conditions for future residents in terms of internal space and private outdoor amenity.
