INTRODUCTION
The Council's Unitary Development Plan (UDP) is the statutory planning frameworkfor the future of the whole Borough.
To help you when you apply for planning permission, and give the background toboth the UDP and other Council policies, the Planning Division has produced anumber of Supplementary Planning Guidance Notes (SPGs).
Although not a formal part of the UDP, the guidance is a material consideration,when the Council is dealing with planning applications.
These Guidance Notes:
Identify the relevant UDP policy; (for a full statement of thepolicy, the UDP itself should be consulted);
Give planning guidance on design and standards;
Provide general advice as well as some information on non-town planning matters such as Building Regulations andHighways, which may need separate approvals from theCouncil.
This Guidance does not prescribe inflexible standards or standard solutions, butinstead describes the design principles and performance criteria to be aimed for.
The word 'normally' is implied in much of what follows, but has been omitted to keepthe text short.
Most design principles will be well known to architects and other qualifieddesigners, who can use the document as a checklist.
This guidance has also been prepared as a practical tool to help those who submitplanning applications.
This guidance is updated more frequently than the plan itself, and you areencouraged to discuss your proposals with planning staff before you make a formalapplication.
Please remember that this is guidance only, and that your application will always
be considered on its merits.

ALTERING AND EXTENDING YOUR HOME
1.1 This guidance note sets out the principles you should consider whenplanning to extend or alter your home. They are based upon the principles ofgood design and are intended to be applied to all forms of home
improvements, including those that do not require the grant of planningpermission.
1.2 Poorly-designed alterations which detract from the appearance of yourproperty can often reduce its value. Good design can be achieved at goodcomparative cost and avoids future expenditure associated with theproblems and maintenance resulting from poor design.
1.3 The advice in this document does not apply to the Borough's ConservationAreas, or listed buildings. Specific guidance notes are available which coverthe Woodgrange Conservation Area.
1.4 For the sake of clarity this document has been divided into types of homeimprovement. Each section explains general design considerations.
THE NEED FOR PLANNING PERMISSION
2.1 No work should be undertaken or contracts signed before you haveeither confirmed that planning permission is not required, or, if it isrequired, you have received a planning decision notice giving youplanning permission.
2.2 Planning permission (or in Conservation Areas, Conservation Area
Consent) is also required for demolition of all, or in some cases part,of a dwelling house or a building adjoining a dwelling house.
2.3 Listed Building Consent is required for any alteration or extension ofa Listed Building inside and out, and for works involving demolition,irrespective of whether planning permission is required.
2.4 If permission is required, it is important that accurate scaleddrawings are prepared, for which you are advised to consult aqualified architect or surveyor.
2.5 As part of its procedures for determining planning applications, the
Council will seek the views of your neighbours, so you may wish todiscuss your plans with them first.
2.6 Planning application forms, along with Supplementary PlanningGuidance Note No.1 'Making a Planning Application', are availablefrom the Council's Planning Division.

GENERAL DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 When extending or altering your house, two main considerations need tobe given particular attention. These are:
1. AmenityThe effect your proposals have upon your neighbour's enjoymentof the amenity of his/her property and upon your property.
2. DesignThe appearance of your proposal.
Amenity
3.2 In a densely built-up area such as Newham particular care is needed whenaltering or extending your home in order to avoid adversely affectingneighbouring properties by:
overshadowing;
loss of sunlight and daylight;
loss of outlook;
loss of privacy.
3.3 The size (i.e. height, depth and mass) position and orientation ofextensions are important considerations in determining their physical impact.
3.4 To ensure privacy between opposing dwellings, the Council's minimumoverlooking distance of 21m between the windows of habitable rooms
located opposite each other should be maintained.
Design
3.5 This is important as it determines how well your alterations/extensionrespect the design of the original house and fit in with the street scene.The main considerations are:
the size/shape and proportions of the extensions;
roof style;
the type of doors and windows and their relative positioning;
the materials to be used;
architectural character and detailing.
When designing an extension all of these features should reflect the character ofyour existing house.
3.6 Good design need not be expensive. Although matching materials and theuse of pitched roofs may result in a slightly higher cost initially, in the longerterm they should result in lower maintenance costs and make your propertymore attractive to potential purchasers.

ADVICE ON SPECIFIC TYPES OF HOME ALTERATIONS
Introductory Notes
Where measurements are stated these should be derived from the externaldimensions of your property.
EXTENSIONS
Design Guidelines
General
a) New extensions shall relate to the style and character of theexisting house;
b) They should be constructed with a pitched roof to match the design andappearance of the existing house. The use of flat roofs will normally only beacceptable where their visual impact would not be unacceptably significantand where they are appropriately designed i.e. with a parapet wall treatment;
c) Materials shall be chosen to match the existing house;
d) Windows shall have the same glazing pattern and shall be alignedto and match the existing ones in terms of size and
e) type;
f) Adequate private amenity space shall be retained to serve thereasonable needs of the occupiers and to prevent
g) overshadowing of the adjoining house/s and garden/s;
h) Side windows will not normally be permitted unless they servebathrooms, wc's, halls, landings or stairways and are
i) obscure glazed;
j) Extensions undertaken jointly with an adjoining owner may givegreater flexibility in terms of design, depth, and height and mayproduce a more pleasing solution.

Altering and Extending Your Home
Single Storey Rear Extensions/Conservatories
a) These shall not normally exceed 3.05m in depth to avoidovershadowing of neighbouring properties.
b) Conservatories - care should be taken with siting to avoid loss of
privacy to adjoining occupants; 1.8m high fencing should be erectedalong side boundaries to avoid overlooking.
Two Storey Extensions
a) Two storey extensions will not normally be acceptable on terracedproperties unless it can be shown that the extension does not adversely
affect the adjoining occupants by reason of overshadowing, overlookingand loss of privacy - they may however be acceptable on a semi-detached or detached house.
b) The provision of a first floor dormer window set within a mono-pitchroof structure, can in certain instances, provide the format for designinga first floor extension on an existing rear addition. This has the benefitof limiting the impact of extension impact upon adjoining properties.(See diagram).

Altering and Extending Your Home
Side extensions
These may be designed as follows:
either
a) Set the extension back from the front of the existing house. Thismakes any difference in materials or colour less noticeable andcontrols cracking resulting from differential
movement;or
(b) make the extension indistinguishable from the originalhouse by careful matching of materials, features and lines.

Balconies and Roof Gardens
Generally, in densely populated areas such as Newham, these can presentoverlooking problems; the Council will therefore consider each case on its merits -their design will always need careful consideration.

Altering and Extending Your Home
ROOF ALTERATIONS/DORMER WINDOWS/LOFT CONVERSIONS
Design Guidelines
a) Velux type roof lights or similar are normally preferable to dormerwindows because they are less obtrusive and do not interfere withthe line of the roof slope.
b) Dormers are normally only acceptable at the rear and should not bevisible from the front of the house. Preference will be given to theuse of pitched roof dormers.
c) Positioning: The dormer should have a substantial proportion of theexisting roof around it. It should not give the
d) impression of being of full width or full height. (see diagram)
e) Consideration should be given to its relationship to existingwindows and other features below it.
f) Proportions: The dormer should not give the impression of being
bulky and out of proportion to the existing house.
g) Dormers should be clad with materials to match the roof of theexisting house.

Altering and Extending Your Home
h) Overlooking - the effect of this will be considered in the context ofeach proposal.
i) Proposals to change flat roofs to pitched roofs will be welcomed.However, the effect on neighbouring property will affect the
acceptability of individual proposals.
PORCHES
Design Guidelines
Most older terraced properties in Newham are not suitable for front porchextensions without radically altering their design, character and appearance.
Many properties have recessed front doors often with ornate or featured doorways.To hide such detail behind a modern porch detracts from the appearance of thedwelling and the terrace generally (see above):
Porches are often installed to reduce draughts, improve security or create a lobby.The cheapest and easiest way to do this is to create a lobby behind the existingfront door. Alternatively a wrought iron gate may be used to enclose a recessedporch. Both avoid harming the external fabric of the building and can be reversed at
a later date if desired.
However, if a porch is to be created by utilising the original recess, doorwayfeatures should be preserved. A porch which has glazed sides will often relatebetter to the existing house and will enable restoration to the original at a later date.
Page 9
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
12/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
Page 10
Not all properties have such recessed doorways and on more modern propertiesthe following design guidance should be borne in mind:
a) Keep in proportion to the size of the house;
b) Use materials which match the existing house;
c) Construct the porch with a pitched roof using tiles which are of asmaller size than those of the main house;
d) Where there is a bay, care should be taken to avoid creating abulky and insensitive structure not in sympathy with the bay. Avoiddamage to mouldings around doors and windows;
e) Choose a door which has a style compatible with the age/stylingof the property;
f) Front extensions other than porches will not normally be permitted.
GARAGES, GARDEN SHEDS & OTHER BUILDINGS
Design Guidelines
Garages
a) At the side of the house should be set back at least 1m from thefront of the house.
b) Match materials to those used on the house.
c) Pitched roof or same style as house.
d) Garage doors should reflect the original style of the front door of thehouse.
e) Minimum internal dimensions of length and breadth should be 4.9mx 2.4m internally, with a clear opening of 2.3m min. A standardgarage for wheelchair users is 5.2m x 3.3m (internal).
f) Keep width height and bulk in proportion to the existing house.
g) Consider the adverse impact on neighbours of over- shadowing.
h) Consider how difficult or easy it will be to manoeuvre a car in andout of the proposed garage.
i) There should always be room for a car to stand in front of thegarage. A minimum distance of 6m is normally required betweenthe garage door and back of the footpath, to avoid carsoverhanging the pavement and to enable the garage door to beopened whilst a car is parked on the drive.
Sheds and Other Garden Buildings
a) Keep buildings in proportion to the size of the garden - thesestructures should not be visually intrusive upon public areas.
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
13/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
b) The predominant use of wood and glass has normally resulted instructures sympathetic to the garden environment, however, more
modern materials with similar characteristics to wood and glassmay be appropriate.
c) Consider any adverse effect on neighbours of overshadowing andoverlooking. These structures should always be for recreationaluse and not used as habitable rooms or for business purposes.
d) Unacceptable garden sheds are those which take up too muchgarden area; overshadow neighbouring gardens or have flankwindows which overlook neighbouring garden.
VEHICLE HARDSTANDINGS
Design Guidelines
(a) Parking in front gardens generally destroys those elements (soft landscapingand enclosing walls) which create an attractive street scene. It rarely results inadditional car parking space since the access from the road reduces the availablelength of kerbside parking. It also introduces a visually intrusive feature which canadversely affect the amenity of neighbours. It should thus be avoided whereverpossible. If a hardstanding is built it must be connected to the highway via acarriage crossover across the pavement. This must only be constructed bythe Council. Current charges can be ascertained from the Director ofTechnical Services who will also consider whether access is acceptable ontraffic safety grounds. (see Appendix 1 for addresses).
If a hardstanding is installed the following points should be noted:
Page 11
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
14/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
The hardstanding should be set at least 1m from the front of thehouse, soft landscaping should be put in this 1m strip;
The hardstanding should be constructed in materials and to aspecification which will take the weight of your vehicle otherwisethe area will become damaged and ill-drained;
Small element materials (brick pavers) or gravel look moreattractive than a sheet of concrete which will also show up marks ofoil spills etc. and soon spoil;
The standard car parking space is 2.4m (width) x 4.8m (length);
The width of the access into the garden through the front boundaryshould not exceed 2.4m and should be enclosed by inward openinggates (this normally requires 1.2m per gate);
Overall the depth of a front garden must thus be a minimum of1m+ 4.8m+1.2m=7m (soft landscaping, minimum car space
length plus gate clearance), to enable the incorporation of a carparking space at right angles to the property;
No vehicle must project out over the pavement. This is dangerousto passers-by and could be an offence;
A clearly defined footpath to the front door of the house should beretained. This should be a minimum of 600mm wide or 700mmwide if it adjoins a building.
(b) While it may be possible to park a vehicle parallel with the house this is rarelysatisfactory as it generally results in manoeuvring across the pavement (potentially
dangerous to pedestrians) and requires a much wider opening in the frontboundary wall or hedge to the detriment of the street scene.
(c) If you plan to park a caravan, large boat or high sided vehicle in your front
Page 12
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
15/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
Page 13
garden please consider the adverse effect that could be caused to yourneighbour's home and to the appearance of the street. It is not permissible to parkany caravan or vehicle for permanent occupation or non - residential use.
VEHICULAR ACCESS
Design Guidelines
a) The proposed access to a garden shall be no greater than 2.4m inwidth and enclosed with gates that should open inwards toprevent obstruction of the pavement/public highway.
b) Separate consent for the construction of all new carriagecrossovers needs to be obtained from the Director of TechnicalServices. Please see the contact page in Appendix 1.
SATELLITE DISHES
Design Guidelines
a) It is essential to provide a clear line of sight from your dish to thesatellite, avoiding trees or other solid objects. However, if notcarefully sited, dishes can spoil the look of a property and the streetin which it stands.
b) So when siting your dish:
Respect the views from streets, local parks, and neighbours'properties, and keep the dish out of sight as much as possible.
Try to place the dish where it won't be seen against the sky.
Consider placing it:A. within roof slopesB. behind roof parapetsC. on side wallsD. on rear extension roofsE. where the dish is shielded from public view by
chimney stacks or other projectionsF. on lower roofs or garagesG. in the rear garden, if a good line of sight can be obtained via the
gaps between buildings
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
16/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
a) Try to choose a colour for the dish that blends with the background,and choose the smallest practicable size.
b) Consider having a single dish shared between several properties ifthis improves the appearance.
c) In Conservation Areas, and other defined areas of special character,dishes will not usually be acceptable where they are in front of the mainhouse wall facing the street, or where they are visually prominent from thestreet or other public areas.
d) In relation to listed and historic buildings, dishes will not beacceptable where they adversely affect the building or its setting.You will need listed building consent before any dish is installed on alisted building.
"A Householder's Planning Guide for the Installation of Satellite TelevisionDishes" contains more detailed advice and is available from theDepartment of the Environment, Telephone 0181 691 9191 Ref. 91 PLA 0297.
GATES, WALLS, AND FENCES
Design Guidelines
R
ear garden:
a) Walls and fences should normally not exceed a height of 2m.Where gardens are very narrow, a lower wall or fence may bemore appropriate with perhaps a trellis above if privacy isimportant. Hedges, trees and shrubs can also improve privacy.
Page 14
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
17/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
b) Where adjoining a public area, a brick wall in materials to matchthe existing house, rather than a fence, is required. As well as beingmore attractive it is less likely to be damaged and is more secure.
c) It is important to remember that whilst high walls and fences affordprivacy, they do not enable natural surveillance to occur. In somesituations the use of railings as a boundary treatment is preferableon community safety grounds.
Front garden:
c) Walls, fences and railings should be in proportion to the area of the frontgarden, but normally no higher than 1m. Bear in mind a solid wall or fenceover a certain height may prevent light reaching plants.
Page 15
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
18/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
d) Walls should be of a brick which suits the house. Low walls of stock brickwith copings were the common boundary treatment to Victorian terracefront gardens. Modern decorative blocks and artificial stone are out ofcharacter and so not appropriate for walls to older Victorian and Edwardian
properties.
e) Original gates, railings and walls should be retained, restored and repaired.This adds character and value to a property.
f) Match replacement or new boundary walls, railings and fencing with thoseoriginal features existing in the area and/or to the materials of the existinghouse.
Stone Cladding Pebbledashing, Rendering and Painting Brickwork
Design Guidelines
The above external treatments are almost invariably inadvisable. If you are thinkingof carrying them out please consider the following points first:
a) Will the treatment have an adverse effect on the structure of thehouse? For example stone cladding requires anchorage points inthe existing brickwork and can give rise to long term maintenanceproblems.
b) External treatments can bridge damp courses and block air bricks.Rainwater/ice can be trapped behind them. This may result incondensation and timber rot and cause pieces of the covering to
unexpectedly fall off.
c) Painted and pebble dashed surfaces can weather badly. Also it isdifficult to match new pebble-dash with the old if you alter or extend
Page 16
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
19/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
your home or patches need repair.
d) Rendered surfaces require regular painting and are often subjectto cracking. This can allow the ingress of water which is difficult todetect.
e) If brickwork needs attention repointing is normally sufficient; this isa maintenance free and long lasting remedy.
f) What will potential purchasers of the house think of the stylecreated - one which would be difficult if not impossible to alter?
g) Will it look out of place in the street scene. Will it alter the characterof the dwelling and indeed the terrace in an unwelcome way?
NB: Cladding of properties in a Conservation Area in stone, artificial stone,timber, plastic, or tiles does require planning permission.
REPLACEMENT WINDOWS AND DOORS
Design Guidelines
Altering door or window openings, or replacing windows and doors, can radicallychange the character and appearance of your home and damage the appearanceof the area. This is particularly the case where the property forms part of a terraceor is one of a pair of semi-detached houses.
Bear in mind that :
a) The original size and style ensures the visual balance andcharacter of the house is retained;
b) Using traditional materials for replacement windows and doors
Page 17
8/2/2019 Newham SPG - House Extensions
20/23
Altering and Extending Your Home
Page 18
e.g. wood is often cheaper and a more attractive alternative thanUPVC or aluminium;
c) Silver aluminium replacements with hardwood frames should beavoided - a white or cream finish is usually preferable since it
harmonises better with paintwork;
d) Wooden sash windows can be repaired/restored and secondaryglazed to minimise heat loss - purpose made double glazed unitsare now also available.
CONVERSION OF A GARAGE TO LIVING ACCOMMODATION
Design Guidelines
a) Planning permission will not normally be granted for conversionof a garage unless satisfactory alternative parking provision can beachieved elsewhere.
b) The resulting external appearance should match the existing housein terms of size, style, pattern, colour and materials.
c) Conversion of a garage to a separate dwelling, commercial orbusiness use will need permission and such a use will not normallybe permitted.
OTHER CONSENTS YOU MAY NEED
Whether or not you require planning permission you will need to consider the
following:a) Building Regulations
Many improvements to your house will need to meet therequirements of the Building Regulations. This is a separateconsideration from the planning requirements and relates primarilyto details of construction. Guidance on the need for BuildingRegulations Approval can be obtained by writing or telephoningthe Council's Building Control Division, (see page 26).
b) Covenants, Leases, Party Wall Agreements etc.
Prior to undertaking any form of development with or without
planning permission you should check your deeds, lease ortenancy agreement to make sure that you do not infringe anycovenants. You are also advised to give notice of your plans toyour landlord and neighbours who may wish to comment on yourproposals. If you are in doubt please contact a solicitor.
c) Trees
Trees within your garden may be protected by a Preservation Orderin which case permission will be required from the PlanningDivision before they are lopped, topped or felled. The sameprotection is also given to trees within Conservation Areas.
Even if not subject to such protection, trees contribute greatly towards theattractiveness of an area and provide a welcome natural habitat. They soften andimprove our hard urban surroundings and should be kept wherever possible. Theyshould be carefully protected during any construction period. If removal of a tree is

unavoidable a suitable replacement should be planted in the next planting season(October to March). Further advice and guidance on trees is available from thePlanning Division. See page 27 for the contact number.
