Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 34 and 38 Uxendon Crescent, with regard to outlook and daylight
- whether acceptable living conditions for future occupiers of the proposed development would be provided
- whether the proposal would promote sustainable modes of transport
What decided it
The proposal would be unduly harmful to the character and appearance of the area due to the discordant roof design, harmful to neighbouring living conditions regarding outlook, and would not promote sustainable modes of transport, bringing it into conflict with the development plan with no material considerations to indicate otherwise.
