Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the appeal site and the surrounding area
- whether the site is a suitable location for the proposal having regard to relevant development plan policies concerning residential development
- whether the proposal would meet the requirements of Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG)
What decided it
The proposal's compliance with the adopted Local Plan policies on garden land development (GR10) and small housing developments (HO3), combined with its high-quality design that respects local character and the availability of mechanisms to discharge the statutory Biodiversity Net Gain obligation, justified allowing the appeal.
Plan policies cited: London Plan Policy D3, Local Plan Policy GR1, Local Plan Policy GR10, Local Plan Policy HO3, London Plan Policy H2, Local Plan Policy HO2, London Plan Policy D12, London Plan Policy G6, Local Plan Policy GI3
