Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposed dwelling would appear cramped within the spacious and open character of the area, causing harm to character and appearance that outweighs the moderate benefit of housing contribution.

The moderate weight in favour of housing contribution did not outweigh the harm to the character and appearance of the area

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021), Policy CDH01 of the Barnet Local Plan 2021-2036 Adopted March 2025, Local Plan Supplementary Planning Document: Residential Design Guidance October 2016
