2 Pelham Close London Southwark SE5 8LW
Variation of application ref 26/AP/1494 dated 21/07/2026 for demolition of the central chimney stack, replacement of the external render, replacement of all windows and external doors, alterations to the side elevation - closing two existing openings and introducing a new small window - and removal of some internal walls at ground floor level to create an open-plan layout. Condition 1 (approved plans) and Condition 3 (materials) are to be varied to allow the following changes to the approved development: 1. The replacement windows and external doors are to be aluminium framed in place of UPVC. 2. The new small window on the west side elevation is omitted, as it is no longer required. The replacement windows and external doors are proposed in aluminium in place of UPVC, as part of the fabric-first retrofit of the house, which also includes insulated lime render to the external walls. A thermally broken aluminium system provides thermal performance suited to this approach. The change is limited to the frame material. Other than the omitted window, the number, position, size and opening arrangement of the windows and doors are unchanged, as are all other works approved under 26/AP/1494. The amended drawings (Rev P2) show the approved proposal against the amended proposal. Condition 1: Replace drawings A302 REV P1 (West Elevation) and A200 REV P1 (Ground Floor Plan) with the same drawings at REV P2 (as amended), so that the condition lists the REV P2 drawings. All other approved drawings remain as listed. Condition 3: The materials condition to continue to apply, varied so that the replacement windows and external doors are specified as aluminium framed in place of UPVC. All other materials remain as described and specified in the original application and on the approved drawings.
