Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the building and the area, with particular regard to its scale and design
- the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to outlook and daylight in regard to the occupiers of the adjoining properties on Wandle Road
What decided it
The proposal's harmful effect on the character and appearance of the area combined with its unacceptable impact on the outlook and daylight of neighbouring occupiers at Wandle Road properties, which conflicts with the development plan and cannot be justified by the limited benefits offered.
