The proposed mansard roof addition would result in the loss of the traditional V-shaped roof form of historic interest and detract from the roofscape and roofline of a terrace broken by only isolated roof additions. By reason of its unsympathetic design, scale, visual mass, disjointed form and appearance, and excessive vertical projection above the height of neighbouring properties, the development would appear incongruous, obtrusive and out of character with the group on which it forms a part, thereby failing to preserve the character and appearance of the host building, group of buildings, and this part of the Ladbroke Conservation Area and the views enjoyed within it, contrary to the policies of the Local Plan 2019, in particular policies CL1, CL2, CL3, CL6, CL8, and CL11 and guidance within the NPPF and statute with regard to assessment of proposed development within conservation areas.

Refused/No pre-app or discussion
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. A pre-application advice service is also offered. In this case the proposal does not comply with guidance and policies. No pre-application discussions were entered into, but the Council is ready to enter into discussions with the applicants through the advice service to assist in the preparation of any new planning application.
