Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the first floor rear extension on the character and appearance of the host building as a Building of Townscape Merit (BTM) and the Kew Foot Road Conservation Area (CA)

What decided it

The limited visibility of the rear extension from public vantage points due to tall boundary walls enclosing the area, combined with the already contemporary character of the rear elevation, meant the extension's impact on the conservation area and building of townscape merit was neutral.

Framework references: 57

Plan policies cited: Policy 28, Policy 29, Policy 30
