Scheme description
Construction of a single storey wraparound rear extension.
Why it was refused
Reason 1
The proposed single storey rear wraparound extension, by reason of its excessive depth, height, continuous flank walling and wraparound form, would appear overbearing and monolithic, resulting in an unacceptable sense of enclosure, tunnel effect, loss of outlook and overshadowing impacts to the occupiers of neighbouring properties Nos. 682 and 686 Forest Road. The proposal would therefore unacceptably harm neighbouring residential amenity contrary to Policy 57 of the Waltham Forest Local Plan and the adopted Residential Extensions and Alterations SPD (2010).
