About this application

This is a planning application for demolition at Land And Garages East Side Of Eagle Hill Upper Norwood London. Croydon has handled 19,636 applications of this type. This one was decided in 56 days. There have been 2 other applications at this address. In the past year there have been 1 application across Marbury. We hold 1,190 applications in total for the SE19 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development by reason of its design, siting, scale, overall appearance, would appear as a cramped form of development which would have an uncharacteristic nature within the wider area and appear as an overdevelopment of the site. The scheme would fail to respect the character and appearance of the existing building, the neighbouring dwellings and the character of the area with the result that the scheme would be detrimental to the character to the application building, the neighbouring dwellings and the character of the area conflicting with Policies SP4.1 and DM10 of the Croydon Local Plan 2018, and Policies D3 and D4 of the London Plan 2021
  2. In the absence of a legal agreement, the application does not secure measures to mitigate the impacts of the development by reason of demands created for on-street car parking or offer a contribution towards sustainable transport initiatives in the vicinity to alleviate traffic generation created by the development. The proposal therefore conflicts with Policies T4 and T6 of the London Plan (2021) and Policies SP8, DM29 and DM30 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018).

From the council's decision notice.
