Planning appeal decision
5 Snowbury Road, London, SW6 2NR
Planning appeal 3303043 at 5 Snowbury Road, London, SW6 2NR (London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham) was dismissed on 3 August 2023 by Inspector Jones D, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the Council's refusal to grant the certificate of lawful use or development was well founded, specifically whether the proposed works constitute an enlargement which joins the original roof to the roof of a rear or side extension, and if not whether the eaves of the original roof are to be maintained or reinstated by the works.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the Council's refusal to grant the certificate of lawful use or development was well founded, specifically whether the proposed works constitute an enlargement which joins the original roof to the roof of a rear or side extension, and if not whether the eaves of the original roof are to be maintained or reinstated by the works
What decided it
The proposed enlargement fails to comply with condition B.2.(b)(i)(aa) of Class B of the GPDO because it does not maintain or reinstate the eaves of the original rear main roof slope, which had already been removed by an earlier rear roof extension.
