| 1. | By virtue of its scale, proximity, position forward of the building line and prominent siting, the proposed development would fail to integrate appropriately within the existing site and would not respect the established character of the surrounding area. As such, the proposal is considered unacceptable when assessed against Policies 10 and 26 of the Havering Local Plan (2021), Policy D4 of the London Plan (2021), and the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF). |
| 2. | The proposed layout would result in substandard accommodation for future occupants due to insufficient floor-to-ceiling height and a failure to meet the minimum internal floorspace requirement of 79m² for a two-bedroom, four-person dwelling. Consequently, the development would create a poor-quality residential environment, detrimental to the amenity of future residents. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy 7 of the Havering Local Plan and Policy D6 of the London Plan. |
| 3. | While the rear garden area would exceed the minimum size standard, its tapered boundary and narrow width, ranging from approximately 5.8m to 1.9m, would result in a poor-quality and insufficiently usable space for a two-bedroom, four-person family dwelling. This would be detrimental to the amenity of future occupiers and contrary to Policy 7 of the Havering Local Plan, Policy D6 of the London Plan, and the National Planning Policy Framework. |
| 4. | In the absence of sufficient details for the proposed crossover extension, it is considered the extension of the existing crossover, siting and proximity of the drop kerb/crossover to the junction would result in inadequate access and egress arrangements that would be harmful to highway and pedestrian safety contrary to Policy T4 of the London Plan, Policies 23 and 24 of the Havering Local Plan and the London Borough of Havering Domestic Vehicle Drop Kerb Policy (Adopted April 2023) |
| 5. | In the absence of sufficient information to demonstrate the existing on-site parking for the donor property, the proposed development due to its inadequate on-site car parking provision would likely result in unacceptable overspill onto surrounding roads, causing harm to highway safety and residential amenity, and contrary to Policies to Havering Local Plan Policies 23 and 24, London Plan Policies T4, T6, T6.1 and the NPPF (2021). |
| 6. | Statement Required by Article 35 (2) of the Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) Order 2015: Consideration was given to seeking amendments, but given conflict with adopted planning policy, notification of intended refusal and the reason(s) for it was given to Mr B Charles (Agent) by e-mail on 15/10/25. |
| 7. | For Residential Development Only
