About this application

This is a planning application for demolition at 54B & 54C Craven Park, London, NW10 8QL. Brent has handled 17,107 applications of this type. This one was decided in 56 days. The site is in a conservation area. There are no previous applications recorded at this address. In the past year there have been 74 applications across Stonebridge. We hold 4,523 applications in total for the NW10 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The application is supported by inaccurate and insufficient drawings and information, which fail to clearly represent the existing site, including its roof form, internal layout and existing use. As a result, the Local Planning Authority cannot undertake a full and robust assessment of the proposal or its impacts on character, appearance, and neighbouring amenity. The proposal therefore fails to demonstrate compliance with Policy DMP1 of the Brent Local Plan (2019–2041).
  2. The rear dormer and associated roof alterations (as shown on the submitted plans), by reason of their siting, excessive scale and prominence, would create an incongruous and visually intrusive roof form, resulting in an overly dominant, cluttered and uncharacteristic roofscape. This would harm the character and appearance of the host property and wider area, contrary to Policies DMP1 and BD1 of the Brent Local Plan (2019–2041) and Brent’s Residential Extensions and Alterations SPD (2025).

From the council's decision notice.
