Project
We’ve secured planning permission for a one-bedroom house on Weardale Road. After completing the construction of 14 flats, we retained a lock-up garage on the corner of the site, which had been used for storage. Given the site’s proximity to the Quaggy River, the initial pre-app response was a firm rejection due to the requirement for a sequential test, which was unlikely to be passed. However, with the support of our flood risk consultants, we were able to demonstrate through a Flood Risk Assessment that all sources of flooding posed a low risk. As a result, the sequential test was not required, and Lewisham Council granted approval.
