Why it was refused

  1. The scale, form, massing and design of the proposed extensions would compete with and dominate the host listed building, eroding its historic character and significance. Furthermore the application has failed to demonstrate that the harm to the historic fabric would be acceptable contrary to the requirements of Policy HE1 of the Rushmoor Local Plan (2014-2032) and the NPPF (December 2024). D Stevens ppJake Hamilton Date: 30/07/2026 Development Management N.B. Please read the Notification at the end of the Notice TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING ACT 1990 (as amended) Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) Order 2015 Notice of Decision: Reference Number 26/00100/FULPP
  2. The proposed extensions by reason of their form, bulk and siting would detract from established views and areas of townscape that are of value in the conservation area and appear as a cramped form of development on the site and would therefore be contrary to the requirements of Policies DE1 and HE3 of the Rushmooor Local Plan (2014-2032).
  3. The proposed development would be materially harmful to the residential amenity of the occupants of the adjoining properties by creating a loss of privacy and an oppressive and overbearing form of development to private amenity space, that conflicts with the requirements of Policy DE1 of the Rushmoor Local Plan (2014-2032).
  4. The proposed development would not provide a satisfactory level of on-site parking and it would lead overspill parking and additional trip generation that it is considered could not be accommodated on the surrounding streets and would prejudice safety of the local network contrary to the requirements of Policy IN2 of the Local Plan (2014-2032) and the Rushmoor Car and Cycle Parking Standards (2024).
  5. The application has failed to provide sufficient information to demonstrate that the proposed development would achieve the mandatory minimum 10% Biodiversity Net Gain required by Schedule 7A of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended by the Environment Act 2021), and conflicts with the Rushmoor Biodiversity SPD (2024).
