Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed single-storey side-to-rear extension upon the living conditions at 10 and 14 The Avenue, with particular regard to visual impact

What decided it

The visual dominance and overbearing impact of the proposed extension upon the living conditions and amenity space of the neighbouring property at No 10 The Avenue, which would be unacceptable in a suburban residential setting.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of The London Plan (2021), Policy CS1.B of the Harrow Core Strategy (2012), Policy DM1 of the Council's Development Management Policies (2013)

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
