Why it was refused

  1. The front porch extension by reason of its siting, appearance and design would result in an incongruous form of development and would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Norbury Estate Conservation Area. In addition no wider public benefits have been identified that would outweigh this harm. The proposal would therefore be contrary to Policies SP4, DM10 and DM18 of the Croydon Local Plan 2018, Policies D3, D4 and HC1 of the London Plan 2021, the Norbury Estate Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan 2014, Croydon Council's Conservation Area General Guidance Supplementary Planning Document 2013 and the provisions of the National Planning Policy Framework 2024 (as amended).

From the council's decision notice.
