Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers with specific regard to internal and external living space
- whether the proposal would be acceptable in terms of its effect on the housing supply within the borough
- whether the proposal would adequately promote sustainable modes of transport
What decided it
The proposal would provide substandard internal living space for future occupiers, falling significantly below minimum standards set in the London Plan, which cannot be outweighed by the sustainable location.
Plan policies cited: Policy D6 of the London Plan, Policy H5 of the SDMP, Policy H8 of the London Plan, Policy H2 of the SDMP, Policy T5 of the London Plan, Policy T2 of the SDMP
