Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development by reason of its siting within the rear garden of a
residential dwelling, away from a defined residential street scene and context, would
constitute inappropriate development in a back garden location, contrary to the
objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework (2019), Policy 7.4 Local
character of the London Plan (March 2016), Spatial Policy 1 Lewisham Spatial
Strategy of the Core Strategy (June 2011) and DM Policy 33 Development on infill
sites, backland sites, back gardens and amenity areas of the Development
Management Local Plan (November 2014).
2
The proposed development by virtue of its siting, scale and detailed design would
result in an incongruous addition within this back garden site, at odds with the
established pattern of development in the area and contrary to Policies 7.4 Local
character and 7.6 Architecture of the London Plan (March 2016), Policy 15 High quality
design for Lewisham of the Core Strategy (June 2011) and Policies DM 30 Urban
design and local character; DM Policy 32 Housing design, layout and space standards
and DM 33 Development on infill sites, backland sites, back gardens and amenity
areas of the Lewisham Development Management Local Plan (November 2014).
3
The proposed development by reason of poor means of access, inadequate internal
floorspace, lack of adequate privacy and ventilation to both bedrooms, poor outlook
from Bedroom 1, lack of internal storage space and lack of cycle storage would be
contrary to Paragraph 127 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2019), Policies
3.5 Quality and design of housing developments, 6.9 Cycling, 7.4 Local character and
7.6 Architecture of the London Plan (March 2016), Policy 15 High quality design for
Lewisham of the Core Strategy (June 2011) and Policies DM 30 Urban design and
local character; DM Policy 32 Housing design, layout and space standards and DM 33
Development on infill sites, backland sites, back gardens and amenity areas of the
Lewisham Development Management Local Plan (November 2014) and Policy D1
'London's form, character and capacity for growth' of the Publication London Plan
(December 2020) .
