Why it was refused

  1. - The proposed development, by reason of the excessive scale and bulk of the rear extension, would not be subordinate to the host building and will be visually prominent and fails to represent good urban design contrary to policy S.DH1 of the Tower Hamlets Local Plan 2031 (2020).
  2. - The proposal to replace the existing fenestration to the front of the property would detract from and cause harm to the character and appearance of Fairfield Road Conservation Area and does not comply with Policy S.DH3 of the Tower Hamlets Local Plan 2031 (2020) and the Fairfield Road Conservation Area Character Appraisal and Management Guidelines (2016).

From the council's decision notice.
