Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development, by reason of its unsympathetic
scale, bulk, location and detailed design, would comprise an
incongruous, discordant and overly-prominent form of
development, which would fail to conserve or enhance the
significance of the locally listed application site, adjoining locally
listed terrace and the setting of the adjacent Grade II listed
Chalmar House. As such the proposed development is considered
contrary to policy D3 (Optimising site capacity through the design-
led approach), D4 (Delivering Good Design) and HC1 (Heritage
conservation and growth) of the London Plan 2021, policy LP1
(Design Quality and Local Character), LP3 (Designated Heritage
Assets) and LP4 (Non Designated Heritage Assets) of the
Hackney Local Plan 2033 and the NPPF.
