Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed first floor extension on the character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
  • The living conditions of the occupants of 49 Stanley Road with regard to outlook

What decided it

The proposed first floor extension's discordant roof design and its adverse impact on the outlook and sense of enclosure experienced by neighbouring occupiers at No. 49 Stanley Road rendered it contrary to development plan policies requiring high quality design and protection of neighbouring living conditions.

Plan policies cited: Richmond Local Plan 2024-2039 Policy 28, Richmond Local Plan 2024-2039 Policy 46, House Extensions and External Alterations Supplementary Planning Document
