Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of 265 Park Lane with regard to outlook.

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the living conditions of the occupiers of 265 Park Lane through overbearing impact and loss of outlook significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits of the proposal, including housing delivery and economic benefits.

The benefits of housing delivery, economic benefits, and improvements to character and appearance were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the adverse impacts on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
