Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development, by reason of the partial loss of the
front boundary wall and front garden area to facilitate a dropped
kerb, vehicle crossover and additional hardstanding would result in
the loss of visual amenity and local distinctiveness to the
streescene that would fail to preserve or enhance the character
and appearance of the application property and wider De Beauvoir
Conservation Area. As such, the proposal is contrary to policies D3
(Optimising site capacity through the design-led approach); D4
(Delivering good design) and HC1 (Heritage Conservation and
Growth) of the London Plan (2021) and policies LP1 (Design
Quality and Local Character), LP3 (Designated heritage assets)
and LP45 (Parking and Car Free Development) of the Hackney
Local Plan 2033 (2020) and guidance contained within Hackney
Residential Extensions and Alterations SPD (2009), the National
Planning Policy Framework and De Beauvoir Conservation Area
Appraisal (2008).
