Stoke Newington CAAC December 2021

Planning Applications for Stoke Newington CAAC meeting for 13 December 2021

2021/2215 47 Stoke Newington Church Street, N16 0NX Partial demolition and erection of new 2 storey two bedroom house. Full Planning Permission (Erin Glancy)

SN-CAAC have no objection

2021/3216 133 Osbaldeston Road, N16 6ND The amalgamation of two flats to create a 4-bedroom larger family unit; demolition of existing first floor rear extension (and external stairs); excavation at basement level including front and rear lightwell; erection of ground floor rear extension; and replacement first floor rear extension with roof terrace Full Planning Permission (Erin Glancy)

SN-CAAC make no comment - it is without our remit

2021/3143 Second Floor And Attic Flat, 8 Brooke Road, N16 7LS Enlargement of existing rear dormer roof extension Full Planning Permission (Micheal Garvey)

SN-CAAC feel this proposal would result in overdevelopment that would affect the setting of a conservation area. It would be better if the eaves were clearly visible and separate from the dormer area.

2021/3208 28 Queen Elizabeths Walk, N16 0HX Excavation of basement and formation of front and rear lightwells Householder Planning (Danny Huber)

SN-CAAC object to this proposal- specifically to the front light well. This is a fine terrace in a lovely street facing Clissold Park. Light wells are not present on any of the neighbouring houses. This would affect the appearance of the house in a conservation area. Although not a CA issue we thought the proposed excavation much deeper than is needed and there are also fire escape problems and likely to be serious drainage problems.

2021/2899 192 Stoke Newington High Street, N16 7JD Installation of 2 x externally illuminated fascia signs and 1 x externally illuminated projecting sign. Advertisement Consent [Application Granted - Standard Conditions] (Danny Huber)

2021/3284 21a Lordship Park, N16 5UN Erection of single storey outbuilding to rear garden Full Planning Permission (Micheal Garvey)

2021/3252 Flat 1, 17 Wilmer Place, N16 0BJ Erection of single story building to house electricity substation. Full Planning Permission (Nick Bovaird)

SN-CAAC have no objection

2021/3394 Salt & Vinegar, 215 Stoke Newington High Street, N16 0LH Submission of details pursuant to Conditions 13 (further details to be provided East Entrance) part h) (details of proposed external green walls) and 14 (further details to be provided Church Street entrance) part a) (details of the railings & handrails) attached to Listed Building Consent dated 13th November 2019 Discharge of Condition (Timothy Walder)

We are concerned about the detail design of the proposed ramp into Abney Park Cemetery from Church Street.1 The design and spacing of the new railings to the ramp look perfunctory and utilitarian and they do not strike up any relationship with the historic railings behind. We think the ramp handrail should have closer spaced baluster rods in keeping with the historic railings and as illustrated in the photo on drawing 611-325 intended to illustrate lead caulking but which also shows the preferred baluster spacing.2 The surface of the ramp forms a flush coping to the ramp edge wall which will make the bottom of the ramp very hard to detail well at the point where the wall, ramp and pavement come together. There would be a far greater chance of this being done well if the ramp edge wall were higher than the ramp surface, again more like the existing railings base. An upstand of say 150mm to the ramp edge would allow a separation between all the elements giving neater and more achievable result. The coping should also not be flush as shown but designed with a projecting drip of at least 35mm to help prevent staining to the wall below.3 The termination of the handrails doesn't look very user friendly. Even a small curve would invite the hand more than the sharp angle shown.

2021/3313 58 Lordship Road, N16 0QT Construction of roof extension to existing two storey outrigger Householder Planning (Micheal Garvey)

SN-CAAC feel that the roof extension may be overdevelopment/overbearing even in this "smaller" version but it is a matter for the Planning Officer and neighbours to sort out.
