Delegated decision: Refused · Kate Vaggers
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed first-floor side extension, by reason of its poor design, bulk, scale, form and siting,
would result in a dominant and visually intrusive addition that fails to appear subservient to the host
dwelling and would be out of keeping with the established character and pattern of development, to the
detriment of the visual amenities of the subject property and surrounding area. The proposal is
therefore contrary to Policy D4 of the London Plan (2021), Policy CP30 of the Core Strategy (2010),
and Policies DMD8, DMD14 and DMD37 of the Development Management Document (2014), and the
National Planning Policy Framework (2024).
