Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development constitutes a sub-standard form of residential development by virtue of the
insufficient outlook and undue sense of enclosure from the proposed basement level unit. Additionally the
application has failed to demonstrate that sufficient daylight would be provided to the unit. As such, the proposal
would provide a sub-standard level of accommodation and a poor living environment for future occupants, contrary
to Policies H5 and H6 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021).
