Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the revised design on the character and appearance of the building and wider area

What decided it

The poor relationship between the new dormer and revised rear projection creates an incongruous and visually discordant appearance that harms the character and appearance of the building and wider area, conflicting with design and heritage policies.

Framework references: 130

Plan policies cited: Policy D4 of the London Plan, Policy HC1 of the London Plan, Policy 28 of the Sutton Local Plan 2018, Policy 30 of the Sutton Local Plan 2018
