11 May 2009 – 21 Holmewood Road, London, SE25 6UZ  

Planning Inspectorate Reference: APP/L5240/X/09/2094733 

London Borough of Croydon Reference: 08/03564/LP 

Summary of Case (appeal dismissed): 

·       The application site has an original two-storey rear projection.  Within the infill area, to the side of the original-storey storey rear projection, the application would have left a small courtyard, and then would have erected a single storey extension, which would have projected past the end of the original two-storey rear projection and wrapped around the latter.  The Inspector concluded that such an extension would not be permitted development. 

Main Conclusion: 

·      Where an extension within an infill area would leave a courtyard, and then project past the end of the original rear projection and wrap around the latter, it would not be permitted development.
