Successful Application – Erection of glazed screen around flat roof to form terrace

10/05/2023 / Hammersmith and Fulham / Planning Application

Our client in the Bradmore Conservation Area wished to utilise the flat roof of the rear outrigger extension as a roof terrace, accessible by a new door at third floor level. Cameron Jones Planning advised on acceptable designs to overcome overlooking issues, produced the Heritage Statement and managed the full application process.

Successful Appeal – Front, rear and side extensions, and roof alterations

09/05/2023 / Richmond Upon Thames / Planning Appeal

We prepared and submitted the appeal against the refusal of the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames to grant planning permission for this two storey, semi-detached dwelling in the East Sheen Conservation Area. The Council objected to the two-storey extension of the rear outrigger and hipped-roof dormer. Their case had not been based on a site visit and had not taken account other developments in the area. We successfully argued the proposal would not be out of character with the surrounding area and would match the scale, form and appearance of the host dwelling.

The Inspector concluded that the proposed alterations would be appropriately sympathetic and respectful to the character and appearance of the existing building in terms of siting, design, height, bulk and mass.

Variation of Condition – Reinstate Permitted Development Rights

05/05/2023 / Runnymede / Conditions, Variation of Planning Permission

A client wished to vary a condition of an earlier permission that removed permitted development rights for this dwelling on a 10 acre plot in the Green Belt . The new owners were querying the plot division when the previous owners sub-divided the dwelling into three separate units. The Local Planning Authority were unhappy with the treatment of the curtilage, not wanting the entire 10 acres to be considered as part of the residential plot for PD purposes.

Following extensive negotiations between the Planning Officer and the client, and many site plans we were able to achieve a satisfactory outcome on the curtilage for each plot and were successful in having permitted development rights reinstated.

Certificate of Lawfulness Granted – Merge three dwellings to two.

04/05/2023 / Windsor and Maidenhead / Certificate of Lawfulness

We were approached by residents who would live in a terrace of grand Victorian properties (built as one dwelling but subdivided into four in the 1950s). The central property was for sale and the neighbours either side wished to purchase it and subdivide it so they gain half each to enlarge their dwellings.

We argued that the proposal would not constitute development as the scheme would only require alterations to the interior of the building, and would not affect the external appearance of the building. Both current dwellings and the proposed composite dwellings fall within the same use class.

The Planning Officer agreed, concluding: “The proposed reconfiguration of the internal layout to amalgamate the existing three dwellings, creating two 6 bed dwellings, would not amount to operational development under Section 55 (2) (a) (i) or (a) (ii), or amount to any material change of use under Section 55 (3) (a) of The Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended).”

21/04/2023 / Richmond Upon Thames / Planning Application

Cameron Jones Planning prepared a comprehensive planning statement for a two-storey side extension, the conversion of the existing garage to a habitable room, a loft conversion to a habitable room and two small rear dormer extensions for this five bedroom dwelling in the Hampton area of Richmond-upon-Thames. The development created an additional bedroom plus study space. We worked closely with the architect on a scheme that would be acceptable to the Local Planning Authority, harmonising with the streetscene and having minimal impact on the neighbours,

Successful Appeal – Erection of a five-bedroom dwellinghouse

08/11/2022 / Richmond Upon Thames / Planning Appeal

We successfully appealed against the decision by Richmond Upon Thames London Borough Council to refuse planning permission for the erection of a five-bedroom dwellinghouse with associated outbuildings, parking and landscaping following demolition of the existing bungalow in Teddington.

The inspector agreed that the new dwellinghouse had an acceptable effect on the character and surrounding area and that the development was of high architectural and urban design quality.

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!
