Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to internal space
  • the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance
  • the effect of the proposal on the character of the area with particular regard to activity arising from it, and refuse facilities
  • the potential for crime and disorder

What decided it

The proposal would provide unacceptably small bedrooms and inadequate communal spaces, forcing future occupiers into poor living conditions, and would generate harmful noise and disturbance to neighbouring occupiers through the concentrated intensity of a six-person HMO in a modest dwelling.
