The proposed extension by virtue of its height, form and design would result in less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Thurloe and Smith's Charity Conservation Area and there would be no public benefits to outweigh the harm caused. The proposed extension would be incongruous and an inappropriate addition when viewed in the context of the wider site. Therefore, the proposals would be contrary to policies CL1, CL2, CL3, CL6, CL9 and CL11 of the Local Plan 2019 and the NPPF.

Refused despite pre-app advice
To assist applicants in finding solutions to problems arising in relation to their development proposals the Local Planning Authority has produced planning policies, and provided written guidance, all of which are available on the Council's website, and offers a pre-application advice service. Pre-application advice was sought and provided. Unfortunately, this advice was not adhered to. Nevertheless, the Council is ready to enter into discussions with the applicants through the advice service to assist in the preparation of a new planning application.
