Why it was refused

  1. In the absence of a condition survey to demonstrate that the replacement of the existing windows is necessary, the loss of historic fabric and detailing has not been adequately justified. Furthermore, uncertainty remains regarding the accuracy of the proposed detailing. The proposal therefore fails to preserve the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and would result in harm to its significance, contrary to Policy Q20 of the Lambeth Local Plan 2021. This harm would not be outweighed by public benefits (paragraph 215 of the NPPF (2024).

From the council's decision notice.
