43 other applications within 300 m: 31 granted, 3 refused, 2 pending. 91% of decided applications nearby were granted. Tallest granted nearby: 4 floors (PA/03166/25).
Approval estimate for new construction applications like this here: about 95% (likely range 65–100%, low reliability, from 2 comparable decisions nearby). Outside the development zone, where approvals are harder. Indicative only. It's based on decisions for similar nearby applications, not on the drawings or the case officer's report; it gets better as documents are added from eapps.
