2013 policies DM A1 <strong>and</strong> DM A3, together with Core Strategy H4. The internal<br />

regard to Mayor's Design Guidelines, <strong>and</strong> London Plan Policy 3.5 <strong>and</strong> table 3.3,<br />

<strong>and</strong> architecture, requiring new developments to have regard to the pattern <strong>and</strong><br />

grain of existing development. The proposal would preserve <strong>and</strong> enhance the<br />

character <strong>and</strong> appearance of the adjacent conservation area in accordance with<br />

the policies detailed above.<br />

5. Residential Amenity: The impact of the proposed development upon<br />

adjoining occupiers is considered acceptable. The proposal would not have an<br />
