Scheme description

Variation of condition 1 of planning permission dated 27 October 2025 (RN: 25/06173/FULL) for the erection of side extension at ground floor and part-first floor; use of the existing rear extension roof as a terrace; alterations to rear elevation fenestration; installation of conservation style rooflights; erection of two new dormer windows; and installation of permeable paving to front driveway; NAMELY, to vary the approved drawing numbers to allow for new sash windows, addition of fanlights to garage doors, repositioning of windows to ground floor extension, installation of new window and door surround and installation of new coping to rear elevation.

Why it was refused
Reason 1

The proposed changes to the windows at front and side elevations, fanlights to garage doors, new surrounds to windows and doors would change the operative part of the development that we approved on 27 October 2025 (RN: 25/06173/FULL). Applications under Section 73 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) may not be used to amend the operative part of a planning permission or to impose conditions which would be inconsistent with the operative part of the original planning permission.

Reason 2

Because of the fanlight/transom to the garage door, the works would harm the appearance of this building and fail to maintain or improve (preserve or enhance) the character and appearance of the St John's Wood Conservation Area. This would not meet Policies 42, 44 and 45 of the City Plan 2019 - 2040 (January 2026). (X16AD)
