Scheme description
Erection of an independent roof over an existing yard accessed off Hungerford Lane.
Why it was refused
Reason 1
Because of its location, design and materials the proposed roof structure would harm the setting of the grade II listed buildings. It would also fail to maintain or improve (preserve or enhance) the character and appearance of the Trafalgar Square Conservation Area. This would not meet Policies 38, 39 and 40 of the City Plan 2019 - 2040 (April 2021).
