Why it was refused
Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The proposed extension by way of its excessive size and bulk would dominate
the rear elevation eroding the original fenestration, roof, and symmetry of the
semi-detached pair in contravention of policies LP1, LP3 or LP5 of the Local
Plan, Section 72 (1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas)
Act 1990, Policy HC1 (C) of the London Plan (2021) and paragraphs 212 or 215
of the NPPF (2024). In addition, the proposal fails to comply with the guidance
set out in the Wandsworth Housing SPD (2016) and Charlwood road/Lifford
Street Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Strategy.
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. However, we have been unable to seek solutions to problems as
the principle of the proposal is clearly contrary to our statutory policies and
negotiation could not overcome the reasons for refusal.
