Replacement dwelling in Bray, Maidenhead

30/04/2024 / Windsor and Maidenhead / Planning Application

Cameron Jones Planning worked closely with Holland Green Architecture to develop plans for a replacement five bedroom dwelling that would be in accordance with national and local planning policies and the design guidance as set out in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead’s supplementary planning guidance. We put together a strong case based on a detailed analysis of the local architectural vernacular, and other permissions and refusals in the Borough for similar schemes, The planning statement addressed all potential site constraints and demonstrated the sustainability argument for the new dwelling.

The Council approved the submitted scheme with no amendments.

Appeal Success – Two storey and subterranean extensions in Hampton

01/03/2024 / Richmond Upon Thames / Planning Appeal

Cameron Jones Planning successfully argued against the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames’s decision to refuse this application in the Hampton Village Conservation Area. Their decision was based on design, heritage, tree and ecology issues. We built a strong case against the Council’s mistaken view that the building is a locally listed heritage asset. With expert bat and arboricultural opinion, our planning appeal statement put a strong case for the two-storey rear, single storey side, and basement extensions. The Planning Inspector agreed with our arguments and allowed the appeal.

Permitted Development – 7 metres wide rear extension in Green Belt

23/01/2024 / Runnymede / Certificate of Lawfulness

Cameron Jones Planning were able to secure a Certificate of Lawfulness for this large riverside bungalow in Addlestone, Surrey. The dwelling had been subject to multiple historical extensions so determining the original required a lot of detective work. It was over the allowable extension limit under Green Belt policy so a PD compliant scheme was necessary. We demonstrated a scheme that was compliant with Class A of Schedule 2 (Part 1) of the General Permitted Development Order.

Permitted development for two-storey extension to Thames-side dwelling

08/01/2024 / Runnymede / Certificate of Lawfulness

A complicated scheme for a previously extended dwelling in the Green Belt near Egham. The dwelling was already over the allowable extension limit under Green Belt policy so a PD compliant scheme was necessary. We worked closely with the architect to develop a two-storey rear extension that would be compliant with Class A of Schedule 2 (Part 1) of the General Permitted Development Order. The Local Planning Authority granted the Certificate of Lawfulness.

Change of use – Public House to Care Home

30/12/2023 / Runnymede / Planning Application

Cameron Jones Planning submitted a change of use application to convert this ex-pub in Runnymede’s Green Belt to a residential care home for young people. The Council agreed with our argument that the loss of the empty community facility would be countered by the benefits of providing a much needed care facility.

Appeal success – reinstatement of Permitted Development rights

28/12/2023 / Surrey Heath / Planning Appeal

Cameron Jones Planning devised the appeal case against the refusal of Surrey Heath Borough Council to reinstate the Permitted Development rights for extensions and outbuildings at this large dwelling in the Green Belt. The rights had been removed as a condition of an application in 2007. The reinstatement application was refused on the grounds that allowing Permitted Development extensions would harm the character and visual amenity of the surrounding area. We argued that there was no clear justification for this condition, therefore failing the test of necessity and reasonableness. The Planning Inspector agreed with our argument and reinstated the rights. Our client is now able to build the detached garage in the grounds of their home.

Approval – Single Storey Rear Extension

02/11/2023 / South Downs National Park / Planning Application

A seemingly simple rear infill extension to a terraced Victorian dwelling in Midhurst, West Sussex was complicated by the discovery of a roosting Myotis bat. We worked closely with the Ecology Consultant on two surveys and updated the application with necessary mitigation measures. Following a lengthy decision process, we were able to secure approval for our client.

Fiona helped us to get full approval for plans to carry out an extensive refurb of our conservation-area property, which included front, rear and side extensions. We appointed Fiona on the recommendation of our architect, after we received advice at pre-planning stage that permission would not be granted on a number of grounds. Fiona provided extremely efficient support, advising us (time poor and completely new to the planning process) on the risks and merits of different approaches to our appeal - low versus higher risk design options. She drafted a compelling appeal statement, that successfully addressed all grounds for refusal at pre-planning and planning stages. Thank you Fiona!

Cameron Jones Planning were very responsive, professional and value for money. Fiona and Kevin Jones worked seamlessly together, covering for each other as necessary. They took time to understand our wishes and sought proactive solutions where others had defaulted to easier, and unsuccessful, approaches. They also brought in other disciplines as required (legal and architects) to ensure our application withstood scrutiny from all angles. It was a pleasure to work with them.

Highly recommend Fiona - she worked on our successful planning application to Richmond council. She always responds quickly and was able to get access to documents not available online that we needed to support our application. Would use her services again

Fiona at Cameron Jones Planning managed to turn, what appeared to be, a hopeless situation into something we could work with. Her diligence and tenacity have given us the opportunity to see the original plans for the project take shape. Fiona works across a number of projects for us, she is always clear about what she feels is achievable and what is not. I value her services greatly and have no hesitation in recommending Cameron Jones Planning.

We would highly recommend Fiona and her team. We were apprehensive as to where to start with our particular planning problem but from the beginning Fiona offered us straight forward easy to follow advice. The fee that was discussed at the beginning was clear and transparent so we knew at each stage what the cost was going to be. She submitted the application on our behalf after careful consideration of the best way forward and we are happy to say we had a positive conclusion without any hitches at all.

Fiona at Cameron Jones Planning was excellent. We had a really tricky case - an old building, a non designated heritage asset- she worked skilfully and efficiently with the council and through an appeals process. She was so clear with us so we knew what was going on all the time. We truly felt in capable (and the best) hands. We are thrilled to now have planning when there were times it seemed like we may not ever get it! Massive thanks Fiona

Cameron Jones recently supported us with our planning application after our first was refused. Fiona submitted a 20 page document including our revised plans, photos and detailed information around the planning policies. Throughout the process Fiona was in correspondence with the planning department and us, guiding and advising where necessary. Our plans have now been granted but we feel Cameron Jones knowledge and expertise in their business helped immensely to the plans being permitted. A Highly experienced and professional team, thank you!
