Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed mansard roof extension by reason of its design, scale, form and layout would be an
incongruous feature that fails to accord with the design guidance for constructing a traditional mansard roof
extension. A central courtyard at roof level would cause further harm to the locally distinct roofscape of the host

building and the short terrace row. Furthermore, the doors facilitating access on to the front roof terrace are
considered to be retrograde and they serve to harm the architectural integrity of the host building. The proposal
would not respond positively to the character and appearance of the host building and the wider terrace contrary to
Policies Q5, Q8 and Q11 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021) and the Building Alterations and Extensions SPD
(2015).
2
The proposed addition to the rear closet extension at third floor level by reason of its scale and built form
would fail to terminate half a storey below the eaves of the host building. The proposal would result in an overly
dominant addition failing to be subordinate in context with the host building contrary to Policies Q5, Q8 and Q11 of
the Lambeth Local Plan (2021) and the Building Alterations and Extensions SPD (2015).
3
The proposed door unit with Juliet Balcony located in the rear elevation of the closet return by reason of its
style, proportion and size would unacceptably conflict with the fenestration arrangement at the host building and its
group. The development would fail to respect the character and appearance of the host building. The proposal
would be contrary to Policies Q5, Q8 and Q11 of the Lambeth Local Plan (2021) and the Building Alterations and
Extensions SPD (2015).
4
In the absence of a BRE compliant Daylight and Sunlight report, the applicant has failed to demonstrate
that the proposed addition to the rear closet extension at third floor level would not result in a loss of daylight and
sunlight to the occupiers of the adjacent properties 28 and 32 Queenstown Road.
5
The proposed addition to the rear closet extension at third floor level, due to its height, bulk and massing,
would result in the reduction of outlook and cause an undue sense of enclosure to the occupiers of the adjacent
properties at nos. 28 and 32 Queenstown Road.
