Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the supply of family housing in the local area
  • whether the proposal would provide suitable living conditions for future occupants with particular regard to the provision of internal and external space

What decided it

The proposal would undermine the Council's policy intentions to protect family housing supply in an area of demonstrated need, and would fail to provide adequate internal living conditions for future occupants due to insufficient space and ceiling heights.

Framework references: 61, 135, 58

Plan policies cited: WFLP Policy 20, WFLP Policy 56, WFLP Policy 61, London Plan Policy D6, London Plan Policy T5
