Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would comply with development plan policies for back gardens, having regard to the effect upon the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to internal space standards

What decided it

The proposed conversion would provide separate sleeping and living accommodation in the rear garden, constituting an over-intensive use that fails to respect the character and function of the suburban residential area contrary to Policies LP7 and LP26 of the Redbridge Local Plan.

Plan policies cited: Policy LP7, Policy LP26, Policy LP29, Policy D6
