Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of nearby residents, with particular regard to outlook and privacy
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the surrounding area

What decided it

The proposed first-floor extension would create unacceptable harm to the living conditions of neighbouring residents by introducing an elevated vantage point enabling overlooking into neighbouring gardens and first-floor windows, contrary to Policy 37 of the Bromley Local Plan and Policy D3 of the London Plan.

Plan policies cited: Policy 37 of the Bromley Local Plan (2019), Policy D3 of the London Plan, Policy 6 of the Bromley Local Plan
