Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, with due regard to the Becontree Estate, a non-designated heritage asset
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of 96 Lullington Road and 100 Lullington Road, with particular regard to a sense of overbearing and overshadowing

What decided it

The cumulative depth of built form (approximately 6 metres) would be disproportionate to the modest scale of the host dwelling and would unacceptably erode the character and appearance of the area and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers.
