Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the supply of family-sized homes in the Borough
  • whether the proposed development would provide suitable living conditions for future occupants of the development, with regard to privacy and noise and disturbance
  • the effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of the occupants of neighbouring dwellings, with regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal would result in the loss of a family-sized house and have a detrimental effect on the supply of family-sized housing within the Borough, conflicting with Policies S1, S6, H1, H3 and H4 of the Newham Local Plan 2018 and Policies GG4, H8 and H10 of the London Plan 2021.

Plan policies cited: Policy S1, Policy H1, Policy H3, Policy H4, Policy S6, Policy GG4, Policy H8, Policy H10, Policy SP3, Policy SP1, Policy D4, Policy SP2, Policy SP8, Policy GG1, Policy GG3, Policy D14
