Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed development, due to the form of the proposed front roof
extension, would result in an existing uncharacteristic roof feature being
replaced with a further unsympathetic and unduly prominent form of front roof
extension, that would be harmful to the appearance of the host property, and to
the character and setting of this part of the Wandsworth Common Conservation
Area. The development would therefore be contrary to policies LP1, LP3 and
LP5 of the local plan (2023); the 'Housing' SPD (2016) and also in contravention
of Section 72 (1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act
1990, Policy HC1 (C) of the London Plan (2021) and paragraphs 212 and 215 of
the NPPF (2024).
Director of Place: Paul Moore
In dealing with this application the Council has implemented the requirement in
the National Planning Policy Framework to work with the applicant in a positive
and proactive manner and the Council has, as far as practicable, sought
solutions to problems arising in relation to dealing with the planning application.
We have made available detailed advice in the form of our statutory policies in
the Local Plan consisting of the Core Strategy, Development Management
Policies Document, Supplementary Planning documents and where appropriate
the Site Specific Allocations Document as well as offering a full pre application
advice service, in order to ensure that the applicant has been given every
opportunity to submit an application which is likely to be considered favourably.
In addition further guidance was offered to the applicant by the case officer
during the processing of the application to identify amendments to address
those elements of the scheme considered unacceptable. However, the
necessary amendments to make the application acceptable are substantial and
would materially change the development proposal. They would require further
consultations to be undertaken prior to determination, which could not take
place within the statutory determination period specified by the Department of
Communities and Local Government. You are therefore encouraged to consider
submission of a fresh application incorporating the material amendments set out
below which are necessary to make the scheme acceptable.
Required amendments:
Re-instate pitched roof to front roofslope with dormers set within this.
