Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to privacy and any overbearing effect

What decided it

The proposed development would harmfully erode the spacious character of the area and cause unacceptable harm to the privacy and amenity of neighbouring occupiers, particularly 26 The Avenue, contrary to the development plan.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021), Policy SP4 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018), Policy DM10 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018)
