Decision & conditions

Refused Permission
decision
Planning conditions
  1. The proposed front elevation fenestration and the two-storey rear and side extension, by reason of their siting, scale and design, would result in an unsympathetic and incongruous form of development that fails to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the surrounding conservation area and host building of townscape merit. The scheme is therefore contrary to the NPPF and, in particular, Local Plan policies 28, 29 and 30, London Plan policy HC1, and Supplementary Planning Document 'House Extensions and External Alterations' (2015) as supported by the St Matthias Richmond Conservation Area Statement and St Matthias Richmond Conservation Area Study.
  2. The proposed two-storey rear extension, by reason of its siting, depth, height and massing would result in a visually intrusive and overbearing form of development that would be detrimental to the amenity of the neighbouring occupiers, in particular no. 64 Mount Ararat Road. Therefore, the proposal is in conflict with policy 46 of the Local Plan and the House Extensions and External Alterations SPD.
  3. For the avoidance of doubt the Drawing(s) No(s) and Document(s) to which this decision refers are as follows:- 066-T10-90-P1, 066-T20-90-P1 rev C, 066-T10-E04, 066-T20-E04, prepared by CDJM Architects - Submitted 12 August 2026, and 066-T10-E01, 066-T20-E01, 066-T20-E03, 066-T10-E02, 066-T20-E02, 066-T10-P00, 066-T20-P00, 066-T10-P1, 066-T20-P1, 066-T20-BP, prepared by CDJM Architects - Submitted 18 June 2026. Arboricultural Method Statement, Arboricultural Report and Arboricultural Impact Statement, Tree Constrains Plan and Tree Protection Plan (TPP-01 Rev A) - Prepared by Arbor Cultural Ltd - Submitted 18 June 2026.
  4. In accordance with Section DM3 of the National Planning Policy Framework, Richmond upon Thames Borough Council takes a positive and proactive approach to the delivery of sustainable development, by: * Providing a formal pre-application service * Providing written policies and guidance, all of which is available to view on the Council's website * Where appropriate, negotiating amendments to secure a positive decision * Determining applications in a timely manner. In this instance: * The applicants did seek formal pre-application advice, however, the Council's recommendations for amendments were not followed, and the scheme was found to be contrary to policy and guidance, and therefore the application was subsequently refused. The Council is ready to enter into discussions, through the Council's formal pre-application service, to advise the applicants of relevant policy and guidance; and where possible assist in the preparation of a new planning permission. More information on the pre-application service and relevant fees can be found online at www.richmond.gov.uk/pre-application_for_developers.
