Scheme description

Variation of Condition 1 of planning permission dated 10 February 2020 (RN 19/05677/FULL) for the use of rear first floor flat roof as a terrace and associated external works including the installation of trellising NAMELY, to amend the trellis design and add external lighting (lanterns) at rear first floor flat roof.

Why it was refused
Reason 1

The proposed lanterns were not part of the original planning permission and would therefore change the description of development. An application under Section 73 cannot be used to change the description of the original planning permission.

Reason 2

The trellising and planting would make the people living in 13 Wilton Crescent feel too shut in. This is because of the dense weave and height of the trellis and how close the trellis and planters are to windows in that property. This would not meet Policies 7 and 38(C) of the City Plan 2019 - 2040 (April 2021). (X14BD)

Reason 3

Because of its detailed design the proposed revised trellising and associated decorative lanterns would harm the architectural and historic significance of this grade II listed building and the setting of adjacent listed buildings at 13 and 15 Wilton Crescent. It would also fail to maintain or improve (preserve or enhance) the character and appearance of the Belgravia Conservation Area. This would not meet Policies 38, 39 and 40 of the City Plan 2019 - 2040 (April 2021). (X17AE)
