Committee decision: Refused
Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed dormer extension, by virtue of its bulky and dominant
1
appearance and detailed design, would disrupt the roofscape which are
significant features of the locally listed terrace and the wider conservation
area. Consequently, it would harmfully impact the setting and character of
the Holly Grove Conservation Area, and would fail to preserve the
appearance of the building itself and the row of terraced dwelling houses
along Chadwick Road and the Holly Grove Conservation Area.
The proposal is therefore non-compliant with Chapter 12 (Achieving well-
designed and beautiful places), Chapter 16 (Conserving and Enhancing
the Historic Environment) of the NPPF (2023); policy HC1 (Heritage
conservation and growth) of the London Plan (2021); policies P13 (Design
of places), P20 (Conservation areas), P21 (Conservation of the historic
environment and natural heritage), and P26 (Local list) of the Southwark
Plan (2022); and pages 26 and 30 of the Residential Design Standards
SPD (2015).
