Planning Decision

Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of its design, size and scale, the proposed development would lack subservience and would appear incongruous, unsympathetic and visually dominant upon the existing building which would be unduly detrimental to the character and appearance of the existing building and the surrounding area. As such, the development would be contrary Policies SP4 and DM10 of the Croydon Local Plan 2018 and Policies D3 and D4 of the London Plan 2021.

From the council's decision notice.
