Wandsworth

Cameron Jones Planning worked on two planning applications to extend the roof space at this three-storey mid terrace dwelling in the Charlwood Conservation Area. The initial application for a hip-to-gable roof extension (2023/2812) was refused at appeal, deemed an incongruous addition that would harm the conservation area. We were successful with the second application (2023/2812) which proposed the replacement of the side dormer and enlargement of an existing rear dormer. The Planning Officer considered the proposal to preserve the special character of the conservation area.

This three-storey dwelling, within the Putney Embankment Conservation Area, was subdivided into two flats in the 1960s, one three bedroom and the other one bedroom. Cameron Jones Planning prepared the Heritage and Planning Statement which argued that the de-conversion would not result in the loss of a family unit (in line with Wands worth Council’s policy) but create a more usable family unit. Neither the three bedroom nor one bedroom units could be deemed as family-sized. The Planning Officer agreed with our case and allowed the application.
