Delegated decision: Refused · Andrew Pommells
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed rear dormer, by virtue of its size, lack of insets and location in the roof plane of the
subject building, would appear excessively large, dominant and out of character in relation to the host
property and the terrace it forms a part of. The development would therefore be contrary to Policies D3
and D4 of the London Plan (2021), CP 30 of the Enfield Core Strategy (2010) and DMD 13 and DMD 37
of the Enfield Development Management Document (2014).
