This case has not yet been decided.

Decision: Refuse Planning Permission/Consent
Decision date: 20 Feb 2020
Conditions and reasons:

1)

The proposal by reason of its proposed height, width, bulk, scale and mass would fail to read as a subordinate addition to the host property and fail to respect the established rhythm of rear additions in the group of buildings. As a result, the proposal fails to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the group of buildings and the Royal Hospital Conservation Area, contrary to policies CL1, CL2, CL3, CL6, CL9 and CL11 of the Local Plan 2019.

2)

The proposal fails to demonstrate that the height, depth and position of the new closet wing would not harmfully block daylight or sunlight to neighbouring buildings. As a result, the proposal fails to ensure that good living conditions would continue for neighbouring occupants contrary to policy CL5 of the Local Plan 2019.
