Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the appeal dwelling and surrounding area, having particular regard to the proposed refuse and cycle storage

What decided it

The material reduction in the scale and visual prominence of the proposed refuse and cycle storage compared to the previous appeal, combined with a condition to secure appropriate design and screening measures, meant the proposal would no longer cause unacceptable harm to character and appearance.

Plan policies cited: Policy SP5, Policy DP11, Policy D1, Policy D3, Policy D4, London Plan Policy T5
