Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed rear extension by reason of its inappropriate detail and design would result in development
that would fail to appear subordinate to the host property, would fail to respect and respond positively to the original
architecture of the host building and would fail to respond to the positive aspects of the local context and historic
character in respect of built form. This would result in "less than substantial harm" to the character and appearance

of the Conservation Area, which would not be outweighed by the public benefits. Consequently, the proposed rear
extension is unacceptable when assessed against policies Q5, Q11 and Q22 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2020-
2035) adopted September 2021 and the Building Alterations and Extensions Supplementary Planning Document
(2015).
2
The proposed rear extension, by reason of its height and depth in relation to No.18 Prentis Road, would
result in an undue sense of enclosure and loss of outlook and therefore an unacceptable impact on neighbouring
amenity. The application is therefore contrary to Policy Q2 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2020-2035) adopted
September 2021 and the Building Alterations and Extensions Supplementary Planning Document (2015).
