Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the condition is reasonable or necessary to protect trees and in the interests of the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of adjacent occupiers
What decided it
The condition is reasonable and necessary as it prevents further extensions that would result in disproportionate additions dominating the original dwelling and failing to respect the modest form and scale of dwellings in the area, whilst protecting trees and local character.
Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan, Policy SP4 of the Croydon Local Plan, Policy DM10 of the Croydon Local Plan
