Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
By reason of the reliance of the communal access and area of external private
amenity space serving the building fronting onto Bramshot Avenue to access the
proposed dwelling, the proposal is considered to result in an unacceptable loss of
privacy to the residents of the main building and would result in a poor way of access
to the new development which is not considered to be independent, safe or secure.
As such, the means of access to the new dwelling is unacceptable and not
considered to be consistent with policies. As such, the proposal is not considered to
be consistent with policies 3.5, 7.3 and 7.6 of the adopted London Plan (2016) and
H5, H(c) and DH(b) of the adopted Core Strategy with Detailed Policies (2014) and
the Housing SPG (2016).
2
By reason of the poor internal layout, small internalised lightwell serving the lower
ground floor accommodation, the proposed lower ground floor accommodation would
receive minimal daylight and sunlight and outlook and as such is considered to
provide a poor quality of accommodation for future occupiers of the new
development. As such, the proposal is considered to fail to comply with policy 3.5 of
the adopted London Plan (2016) and policy H5 (Housing Design) of the adopted Core
Strategy with Detailed Policies (2014) and the Housing SPG (2016).
