Permission in Principle obtained for two new dwellings in Shinfield

Cameron Jones Planning secured a PIP for our client for two three bedroom dwellings on a vacant parcel of land adjacent to an existing dwelling on Ilbury Close. The site historically accommodated a side extension and garage associated with the host dwelling. The Local Planning Authority considered that any adverse impacts of the proposal would not significantly outweigh the benefits. With regards to Wokingham Borough Council’s poor housing land supply position, the sustainable location of the site and the absence of any overriding constraints, the tilted balance weighed in favour of the proposal.

We are now working on the full planning permission (in the form of Technical Details Consent) which will be submitted to Wokingham Borough Council in October.

Our client wished to regularise the existing residential use of this building, the previously approved used being as a children’s day nursery with ancillary residential accommodation above. We were able to submit evidence to demonstrate that the site has been in use continuously as a self contained residential dwelling (Use Class C3) since at least 8 February 2012. The evidence comprised layout drawings, receipts, insurance policies, AST agreements, and statutory declarations which cumulatively demonstrated the ground floor unit to be a self-contained residential unit for the duration claimed.

Permission for a residential extension in Clapham Conservation Area

Cameron Jones Planning successfully advised the client on a planning strategy and provided a planning statement to obtain planning permission for a three-storey side extension visible from the street. The client had previously been advised by the Council at a pre-application enquiry that such a proposal would be refused on the basis that it would enclose a gap between properties that contributed to the character of the conservation area. Cameron Jones carried out a site visit, providing a study of the existing street scene and appearance of the conservation area, for the client. An accompanying Heritage Statement was commissioned on our recommendation on the basis of our study.

Appeal success – hip to gable and two dormer roof extensions

The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames refused planning permission for a loft conversion comprising a hip-to-gable extension, two rear dormers, and three rooflights claiming they would be bulky and incongruous additions to the existing roofscape causing unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the host dwelling and the surrounding area.

Cameron Jones Planning worked with the architect and homeowner to prepare a statement of case for the Planning Inspectorate. The Inspector agreed with our argument, concluding the scheme would not be out of place in the streetscene and not have a detrimental impact on the home. The appeal was allowed and planning permission granted..
