Decision: Refuse Planning Permission/Consent
Decision date: 23 Apr 1999
Conditions and reasons:

1)

The proposed two storey addition to the rear of Chenil House will result in an adverse sense of enclosure and deterioration of the open aspect detrimental to the residential amenities of neighbouring residents in King's Court and contrary to policies set out in Chapters 4 and 6 of the Unitary Development Plan, in particular Policies CD41(e) and E1.

2)

The proposed two storey addition to the rear of Chenil House will result in a significant loss of sunlight and daylight to neighbouring residents at King's Court contrary to policies set out in Chapters 4 and 6 of the Unitary Development Plan, in particular Policies CD28, CD41(g) and E1.

3)

The proposed side extension enclosing a lift to the King's Road building will, by virtue of its height and location detract from the symmetry and balanced appearance of the building. This will have a detrimental effect on the character and appearance of this part of King's Road and the Royal Hospital Conservation Area in general, contrary to policies set out in Chapter 4 of the Unitary Development Plan, in particular Policies CD25, CD43(c), CD44, CD48, CD49, CD52 and CD53.

4)

The proposed fenestration on the east side of the rear of the King's Road building is out of keeping with the existing window openings on this elevation in terms of their size and design. As such, it is considered detrimental to the character and appearance of the Royal Hospital Conservation Area and contrary to policies set out in Chapter 4 for the Unitary Development Plan, in particular Policies CD48, CD49, CD52 and CD53.

5)

The proposal for a two storey addition to the rear of Chenil House will result in additional bulk and massing in an existing enclosed space detrimental to the open aspect of the site and the character of the Royal Hospital Conservation Area and contrary to policies set out in Chapter 4 of the Unitary Development Plan, in particular Policies CD48, CD49, CD52 and CD53.

6)

The proposed increase in office floorspace will lead to additional parking demand and servicing congestion in surrounding residential streets to the detriment of the residential amenity of the area and the safe and convenient operation of the public highway contrary to policies set out in Chapters 6 and 7 of the Unitary Development Plan, in particular Policies E1 and TR39.
