Delegated decision: Refused · Cheryl Yeung
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposal, by reason of its siting, design, appearance and scale would
constitute an overdevelopment of a constrained site with a cramped, incongruous
and dominant appearance that would be out of keeping with the prevailing
pattern of development of the area and harmful to surrounding visual amenity
and character along Ribblesdale Avenue. It is therefore contrary to Policies D3
and D4 of the London Plan (2021), Policies 7.4 and 7B of the Ealing Development
Management DPD (2013), and Policy DAA of the Ealing Draft Local Plan
(Regulation 22).
2
The proposal, by reason of its siting, scale and design, including location of
windows causes unacceptable amenity impact towards no. 2 Wood End Lane in
terms of loss of light, loss of outlook, overbearing and overshadowing, and no. 1
Ribblesdale Avenue including loss of privacy and overbearing. It is therefore
contrary to Policies D3 and D6 of the London Plan (2021), Policies 7.4 and 7B of
the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013), and Policy DAA of the Ealing
Draft Local Plan (Regulation 22).
3
The proposed development, by reason of failing to meet standard of ceiling
height, dual aspect and private outdoor amenity space, would constitute a
substandard and unsustainable form of development that would provide poor
quality living conditions for future residents. The proposal would therefore fail to
comply with policy D6 of the London Plan (2021), policy 7B of the Ealing
Development Management Development Plan Document (2013), London Housing
Design Standards LPG (2023) and the NPPF (2025).
