Default TT Earth Electrode indoors?

Whats wrong with ' overlapping resistance areas ' ?

The existing earth rods are about a yard outside the backdoor,
the proposed indoors one would be just inside the back door under the consumer units.

The existing TT earth inductance was measured a new weeks ago and was OK,
but I dont have the figures here.
