Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surroundings, in the context of planning policies for the area
  • The effect of the proposed development on surface water run-off from the site

What decided it

The harm to the character and appearance of the surroundings caused by the cramped and unattractive streetscene created by the proposed development clearly outweighed the benefits of the additional residential unit and economic activity.

Plan policies cited: Policy D1 of The London Plan, Policy D3 of The London Plan, Policy D4 of The London Plan, Policy CS1.A of the Harrow Core Strategy, Policy CS1.B of the Harrow Core Strategy, Policy CS1.U of the Harrow Core Strategy, Policy DM1 of the Harrow Council Development Management Policies, Policy DM10 of the Harrow Council Development Management Policies, Policy SI 12 of The London Plan, Policy SI 13 of The London Plan
