Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and the local area

What decided it

The conversion of the hipped roof to gable end and the large, prominently positioned rear dormer cumulatively harmed the character and appearance of the host dwelling and local area, conflicting with development plan policies on design quality and local distinctiveness.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3 of the London Plan, Policy DH1 of the Royal Greenwich Local Plan: Core Strategy with Detailed Policies, Policy DH(a) of the Royal Greenwich Local Plan: Core Strategy with Detailed Policies
