Planning Applications for Clapton CAAC Thursday 23 June 2016

2016/1758 25 Fountayne Road N16 7EA Erection of a side roof extension, new dormer wing to rear of roof to form new loft room internally. Front rooflight and set back roof terrace (Simon Robert 02083566377)

The Clapton CAAC is unable to comment on this application as no documents have been uploaded to the Council's website.

2016/0902 56 Fountayne Road N16 7DT Erection of single storey rear extension to ground floor level. Alterations to ground floor and basement level to convert a single family dwellinghouse into four separate residential units. Replacement of existing front fence. For the purposes of consultation: The proposed housing mix is 2 x 3 bedroom flat and 2 x 1 bedroom flat. (Nick Bovaird 0208 356 8291)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal save that the development description refers to "Replacement of existing front fence," however no such change is apparent from the plans or application form and so no change should take place without clarification and further consultation.

2016/1533 35 Ickburgh Road E5 8AF Conversion of single family dwelling house to three residential units, erection of a single storey rear extension at lower ground floor level to the rear and associated works. (Nick Bovaird 0208 356 8291)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2015/3990 Elm House, Brooke Road N16 7RH Removal of existing boundary treatments and erection of 1.5m high black iron railings to external boundaries with two gate sets (Tim Wild 0208 356 8253)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2016/1579 Flat B 73 Benthal Road N16 7AP Installation of a rear roof dormer, including the installation of three front rooflight velux and change of first floor window at rear of the building to French doors to allow access to existing balcony. (Simon Robert 02083566377)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal save to note that in design terms the rear dormer windows are somewhat odd and would benefit from some design refinement.

The proposed three rooflights to the front elevation are in excess of the two laid down in SPG, however in this circumstance are acceptable.

2016/1581 52 Brooke Road N16 7RX Loft extension including raising of ridge height and introduction of 4No. rear dormers and 3No. roof lights to facilitate introduction of additional residential unit. For the purposes of consultation only: Existing accomodation [sic] comprises: 1No. one bed flat, 2No. three bed flats and 1No. four bed flat. Proposed accommodation comprises: 2No. one bed flat, 2No. three bed flats and 1No. four bed flat. (Nick Bovaird 0208 356 8291)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal and feel it is more successful that the previous application for the site.

2016/1676 41 Cazenove Road N16 6PA Excavation of basement with front and rear lightwells; erection of three storey rear/side and roof extensions to existing three storey rear outrigger; erection of hip to gable and rear dormer roof extensions; erection of outbuilding in rear garden (following demolition of existing outbuilding); to facilitate the conversion of the property from 3 flats into 5 flats. (Nick Bovaird 0208 356 8291)

The Clapton CAAC raises the following concerns:

1. The proposed "Summerhouse" is unconvincing and in scale and appearance appears to be an independent, additional dwelling.

2. The hipped roof pattern of the semi detached pairs must be preserved and the side dormer would harm the established rhythm.

3. The three-storey rear extension squares off a chamfered building edge and is and is an overdevelopment which dominates the host building.

2016/1621 52 Cazenove Road N16 6BJ Erection of single storey extension to the rear. (Louise Smith 0208 356 8061)

This appears to be an example of iterative development which results in over development. There is no reason the extension should not be limited to the extent of the neighbouring extension at number 50.

2016/1880 Flat A, 49 Maury Road N16 7BP Single storey rear extension, following the demolition of existing rear conservatory; single storey rear shed at the far end of the garden; alterations to the front entrance, including the creation of a bin storage; installation of two side facing on northern elevation and internal alterations (Simon Robert 02083566377)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal but would generally prefer a railing on a dwarf wall which is usually as effective at preventing litter ingress. Additionally a gate on the wall return might be effective.

2016/1630 184 Evering Road E5 8AJ Conversion of exising [sic] dwellinghouse to four flats (2x1 bed; 1x2 bed and 1x3 bed) including excavation to create new lower ground floor level with lightwells to the front and rear, alterations to the existing rear extension with terrace, rear dormer extension and associated landscaping works. (Louise Smith 0208 356 8061)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal save to invite the planners to pay particular attention to the light amenity in the lower ground floor/basement flat.

2016/1388 16 Kyverdale Road N16 7AH Replacement windows with uPVC to the rear and front of the property. (Louise Smith 0208 356 8061)

The Clapton CAAC objects to the use of UPVc windows in this setting. Painted timber sash windows should be mandated as per SPG.

2016/1900 405-407 Mare Street E8 1HY Single storey second floor roof extension to create a single self contained residential unit. (Simon Robert 02083566377)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2016/1238 15 Clapton Square E5 8HP Replacement window and door to lower ground floor rear elevation and internal alterations to lower ground floor and ground floor (Simon Robert 02083566377)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the Listed Building Consent application nor the related planning application 2016/1180.

2016/1118 19 Clapton Square E5 8HP Replacement of second floor rear window. (Simon Robert 02083566377)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the Listed Building Consent application nor the related planning application 2016/1098.

2016/1654 143B Upper Clapton Road E5 9DB External wall insulation and render finish to rear and flank elevations at first floor level. (Nick Bovaird 0208 356 8291)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2016/1474 408 Mare Street E8 1HP External alterations including refurbish wndows, remove grilles, re-pointig of brick work; new door new drainage  [sic] (Micheal Garvey 020 8356 8053)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the Listed Building Consent application nor the related planning application 2016/1463.

2016/1790 44 Durlston Road E5 8RR Retrospective consent for a single storey rear/side extension at ground floor level. (Louise Smith 0208 356 8061)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to a side infill extension, per se. In this case, the CAAC has some concerns over the depth and height which exceed policy guidance. The depth is 5.7m against a 3m guide which in turn results in a significant loss of garden/amenity. The height is over 3.1m at the boundary with No 42 which is contrary to the spirit of para 3.72 of the SPD Residential Extensions and Alterations 2009 as it is considerably higher than the previous small extension, much higher than the original boundary wall, and therefore likely to have a negative impact on light and amenity to No 42. A reduced depth of the extension and height at the boundary is recommended.

2015/4629 47 Cazenove Road N16 6PA Erection of part single storey (basement), part two storey (basement and ground floor) rear extension and part single storey, part two storey (first and second floor) and part three storey (ground, first and second floor) side and rear extension; introduction of front and rear lightwells; replacement of existing rear dormer with larger rear dormer and introduction pitched roof side dormer; introduction of 2No. roof lights to front elevation; conversion of building to 4No. self-contained residential units. For the purposes of consultation only: Proposed accommodation: 1.No two bed flats, 1.No two bed flats and 2No. three bed flats. (Catherine Slade 020 8356 8056)

No plans or drawings of the proposed development are available on the Council's website save for the insufficiently detailed proposed block plan.

On the basis of the available documentation we can only say that this appears to be significant overdevelopment.

2016/1837 Flat C 48 Jenner Road N16 7SA The erection of two dormers on rear and side roof slopes and insertion of two skylights on front roof slope. (James Carleton 020 8356 6345)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2016/2033 16 Sutton Square E9 6EQ Replacement of existing rear ground floor windows and doors with crittall double door and windows (Raymond Okot 020 8356 8080)

The Clapton CAAC has no objection to the proposal.

2016/1493 18 Northwold Road N16 7HR The erection of rear/side elevation at ground floor level and associated installation of extraction fan; installation of 3 patio doors at ground floor level following the demolition of three existing single storey structures; removal of existing external staircase to the rear elevation. (James Carleton 020 8356 6345)
