Committee decision: Refused
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
By reason of its height, the proposed ground floor extension would be
overly dominant and would fail to appear subservient to the host building,
to the detriment of its character and appearance and would fail to preserve
or enhance The Mission Conservation Area. This is contrary to the P13
Design of places, P20 Conservation areas of the Southwark Plan (2022);
policies D3 Optimising site capacity through a design-led approach and
HC1 Heritage conservation and growth of the London Plan (2021); and
Chapter 16 Conserving and enhancing the historic environment of the
NPPF (2021); the Heritage SPD 2021; The Mission Conservation Area
Appraisal; and the guidance in the 2015 Technical Update to the
Residential Design Standards (2011).
2
By reason of the height and depth of the ground floor rear addition on the
boundary with No.13 Tisdall Place, the proposal would increase the
sense of enclosure at the rear of No. 13 to a harmful degree and would
result in an unacceptable impact on the daylight and outlook enjoyed by
this property. The loss of amenity at No. 13 would be considered contrary
to the NPPF (2021); policy P56 'Protection of amenity' of the Southwark
Plan (2022) and the guidance in the 2015 Technical Update to the
Residential Design Standards (2011).
