Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed pergola, by reason of its siting, scale, massing and detailed
design is considered to result in an obtrusive addition that would result in
unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the subject property,
the terrace the site is located within and the Hoxton Street Conservation Area.
As such the proposed development is contrary to policies D3 (Optimising site
capacity through the design-led approach) and HC1 (Heritage conservation
and growth) of the London Plan 2021 and policies LP1 (Design Quality and
Local Character) and LP3 (Designated Heritage Assets) of the Hackney Local
Plan (2020) and the guidance contained within Hackney Residential
Extensions and Alterations SPD 2009.
