219 Camberwell New Road, London SE5 0TJ Ref 21/AP/3278
Construction of mansard roof extension to provide a three-bedroom flat, including the demolition of the existing ancillary buildings to the rear at ground floor and the construction of a rear extension at ground floor to provide additional outdoor garden space including a terrace areas at first floor. | 219 Camberwell New Road London Southwark SE5 0TJ
This application provides for the removal of ancillary buildings to the rear of the buildings on the Camberwell New Road frontage which will result in welcome outdoor amenity space for the houses on the Farmer’s Road frontage and a more coherent elevation along Wyndham Road.
The Camberwell Society’s only reservation is the height of the proposed mansard extension to the buildings along Camberwell New Road which will create a top floor significantly taller than the floors below. Whilst some increase in height is justifiable on the corner plot, a lower mansard roof would be more appropriate.
