Why it was refused

  1. Reason 1 The proposed recessed roof terrace, by virtue of its excessive width spanning a substantial portion of the rear mansard slope and visible protective railing, would represent a prominent, ill- fitting, and incongruous addition. The proposal would disrupt the uniform pitch and architectural integrity of the host mansard roof, causing unacceptable visual harm to the host building and surrounding terraced row. The proposal is therefore contrary to:  The National Planning Policy Framework (MHCLG, December 2024);  Policy D4 of the London Plan (GLA, March 2021);  Policies SP1 and SP3 of the London Borough of Newham Local Plan (December 2018); and  Altering and Extending Your Home SPD (LBN, February 2018) Reason 2 The proposed roof terrace, by reason of its elevated position, scale, and width, would result in direct, unneighbourly, and elevated overlooking into the private rear garden areas and rear habitable windows of adjoining properties. The proposal would cause significant harm to neighbouring living conditions through loss of privacy and a severe perception of being overlooked. As such, the proposal is contrary to:  The National Planning Policy Framework (MHCLG, December 2024);  Policy D4 of the London Plan (GLA, March 2021);  Policies SP2 and SP8 of the London Borough of Newham Local Plan (December 2018); and  Altering and Extending Your Home SPD (LBN, February 2018) The above policies can be viewed online via the respective government websites ie. the www.gov.uk website.

From the council's decision notice.
