Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development, by reason of its bulk and scale deriving from its lack of set
back at first floor and set down of the ridge, would fail to be subordinate to the original
building resulting in an unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the
dwelling and the wider area contrary to paragraph 126 of the NPPF (2021); the
provisions of the Alterations and Extensions SPD (April 2019) and in particular
paragraph 4.4.6; Policy 15 'High Quality Design for Lewisham' of the Core Strategy
(June 2011), Policies DM30 'Urban Design and Local Character' and DM31'Alterations
and extensions to existing buildings including residential extension' of the Development
Management Local Plan (November 2014).
