Rear roof and ground floor extension sought at Ealing home

Summary

The applicant wants to add a rear roof extension and a single-storey extension to the back of their home on Derwent Road in Ealing. Rather than applying for full planning permission, they have applied for a Lawful Development Certificate — this checks whether the works fall within permitted development rights, meaning they may not need a formal planning decision. The property is on a residential street in the Northfield ward. Northfields Underground station, a Grade II listed building, is about a minute's walk away. A heritage statement has not been submitted with the application, which is something councils often ask for when listed buildings are close by.
