Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of future occupants, with particular regard to the standard of internal accommodation
  • the mix and balance of housing, with particular regard to the supply of housing in the area
  • fire safety

What decided it

The proposed development would provide inadequate internal accommodation and communal amenity space for 13 occupants, failing to comply with the SPD and London Plan Policy D6, which harm to future occupants' living conditions outweighs the benefits of additional housing supply.

Framework references: 5

Plan policies cited: Policy D6, Policy D12a, Policy BH7, Policy BH10, Policy BH11, Policy H9, Policy BH1
