3.19 The scheme's affordable provision is in excess of the affordable housing target of the Core Strategy, London Plan and DM LP 2013; officers raise no objection to this element of the proposed development. DESIGN and CONSERVATION 3.20 Among the core planning principles of the NPPF are that development always seek to secure high quality design and a good standard of amenity for all existing and future occupants of land and buildings. Furthermore proposals should conserve heritage assets in a manner appropriate to their significance, so that they can be enjoyed for their contribution to the quality of life of this and future generations. London Plan Policies 7.1, 7,2. 7.4. 7.5 and 7.6 require all new development to be of high quality that responds to the surrounding context and improves access to social and community infrastructure, contributes to the provision of high quality living environments and enhances the character, legibility, permeability and accessibility of the surrounding neighbourhood. 3.21 Core Strategy Policy BE1 `Built Environment' states that 'All development within the borough, including in the regeneration areas should create a high quality urban environment that respects and enhances its townscape context and heritage assets. There should be an approach to accessible and inclusive urban design that considers how good design, quality public realm, landscaping and land use can be integrated to help regenerate places'. 3.22 Policy DM G1 (Design of New Build) of the DM LP 2013, seeks to ensure that new build development to be of a high standard of design and compatible with the scale and character of existing development and its setting. It states that: 'All proposals must be designed to respect: a) the historical context and townscape setting of the site, and its sense of place; b) the scale, mass, form and grain of surrounding development; c) the relationship of the proposed development to the existing townscape, including the local street pattern, local landmarks and the skyline; d) the local design context, including the prevailing rhythm and articulation of frontages, local building materials and colour, and locally distinctive architectural detailing, and thereby promote and reinforce local distinctiveness; e) the principles of good neighbourliness; f) the local landscape context and where appropriate should provide good landscaping and contribute to an improved public realm; and g) sustainability objectives; including adaptation to, and mitigation of, the effects of climate change; h) the principles of accessible and inclusive design; and i) the principles of Secured by Design.' 3.23 Policy DM G7 (Heritage and Conservation) of the DM LP 2013 states that the council will '....aim to protect, restore or and enhance the quality, and character, appearance and setting of the borough's conservation areas and its historic environment, including listed buildings, historic parks and gardens, buildings and artefacts of local importance and interest, archaeological priority areas and the scheduled ancient monument'. 3.24 Design Policies 1 and 45 - 50 of the Planning Guidance SPD 2013 are also relevant. Finally, the NPPF (Conserving and enhancing the historic environment) states that In determining planning applications, local planning authorities should take account
of the desirability of sustaining and enhancing the significance of heritage assets and putting them to viable uses consistent with their conservation; the positive contribution that conservation of heritage assets can make to sustainable communities including their economic vitality; and the desirability of new development making a positive contribution to local character and distinctiveness. The NPPF goes on to state that local planning authorities should also look for opportunities for new development within conservation areas and within the setting of heritage assets to enhance or better reveal their significance. It says that proposals that preserve those elements of the setting that make a positive contribution to or better reveal the significance of the asset should be treated favourably. The proposal uses the modular house design product known as Rational House. Committee members may be aware of the approved Rational House scheme for a single house in Biscay Road. The underlying aim of Rational House is to provide high quality city dwellings at affordable costs. It is a modular design which has been developed with flexibility to deal with a range of circumstances and demands. The application site is located within the Lakeside, Sinclair, Blythe Road Conservation Area, and occupies a plot of land within the Spring Vale estate. The site currently contributes little to the conservation area and presents a poor aspect and physical environment, consisting of parking spaces and single storey garages. 3.25 The surrounding area is primarily residential and is either in the form of traditional Victorian two-storey terraces such as those along Ceylon Road and the west side of Porten Road, or blocks of flats at four and six storeys such as Brangwyn Court at four storeys, Elgar Court at six storeys and Porten House on the east side of Porten Road at four storeys. The predominant character of the surrounding streets in the conservation area is one of well- defined frontages where the residential properties address the street. Currently the view along Porten Road is poorly enclosed by the site, and terminated by the open hard surfaced area of the car park. Perimeter trees along the site boundary to Ceylon Road are alone in providing some edge definition to the street. There is an opportunity to reinstate an edge to the streets around the perimeter of this plot with a new built form which respects the existing townscape, and would thereby create a link between the residential streets and the residential estate, and provide an enhancement to the street scene and conservation area. The demolition of the single storey garage block (4 garages) is considered to be acceptable as it has limited architectural quality and makes a neutral contribution to the character and appearance of the area generally at this point (the reduction in the number of parking spaces is a separate issue to be discussed later in the report). 3.26 The proposed scheme would reflect the built forms found in the surrounding townscape and proposes a four storey block on the axis of the view along Porten Road, which would provide good definition to the street edge with a consistent building scale, and two two-storey houses are proposed along the Ceylon Road frontage, which would respond to the terrace opposite. The proposed heights would reflect the prevailing heights of the surrounding built form and along Ceylon Road the alignment would be set back to allow for parking spaces and soft landscaping, including the retention of the existing trees. 3.27 The Rational House concept allows for the roof space to be habitable and the vertical circulation core is lower in height giving a varied massing to the street elevations. The design of the facades would adopt the proportions and details evident on surrounding buildings. A white masonry base and main rendered facade with white masonry architraves to the upper windows which is particularly characteristic in the surrounding townscape would be carried through to the proposed facades.
