Scheme description

External alterations and construction of first floor rear extension, construction of part 1, part 2 storey rear extension and second floor (roof) extension to the Lord Raglan PH; construction of part 1, part 2 storey extension to the rear of 160 Burrage Road; retention of public house use across part ground and basement levels alongside new 18 room aparthotel; reconfiguration of 160 Burrage Road to provide ancillary staff accommodation and manager?s flat; reinstatement of dropped kerb along Raglan Road; formation of new pub garden together with new hard and soft landscaping, bin and cycle stores.

Why it was refused
Reason 1

The proposed double-storey rear extension to the rear of no.158 Burrage Road (Lord Raglan Public House), by virtue of their unsympathetic design, form and scale, would appear as a dominant and discordant feature on the host property that would fail to respect the character of the building or the wider locality. The proposal would therefore be contrary to the NPPF (2023), Policies D3 of the London Plan (2021), Policies DH1, H5 and H(c) of the Royal Greenwich Local Plan: Core Strategy with Detailed Policies (2014) and the Royal Borough of Greenwich Urban Design Guide (2023).

Reason 2

By reason of its height, bulk and proximity to the shared southern and eastern boundary, two-storey rear extension to the rear of no.158 Burrage Road (Lord Raglan Public House), would lead to an excessive loss of outlook and increase in sense of enclosure for the occupiers of nos. 28 and 30 Ragland Road and 160 Burrage Road. Consequently, the proposal would cause considerable harm to the living conditions of the future occupiers of these dwellings and would fail to be in accordance with Policy D3 of the London Plan (2021) and policies DH(b) of the Royal Greenwich Local Plan: Core Strategy with Detailed Policies (2014).
