Planning committee
Decided by Kensington and Chelsea Planning Applications Committee on 17 Feb 2026.
Approved unanimously
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the public benefits would outweigh harm to neighbouring properties, subject to conditions and a legal agreement.
- Two letters objected overdevelopment, neighbour impacts, heritage, daylight, sunlight and accommodation quality.
- Members voted unanimously to grant permission, with an additional £50,000 secured for affordable housing instead of public art.
