side extension at 7 Cathcart Road
Kensington and Chelsea councillors approved a side extension at 7 Cathcart Road in September 2025.
Kensington and Chelsea's Planning Applications Committee approved a planning application for a single storey side extension at first floor level at 7 Cathcart Road in September 2025. This decision was made despite objections from a neighbour, who cited concerns over overshadowing and loss of light.
The committee heard an objector state that the extension would cause harmful overshadowing, towering enclosure, and detrimental effects on living conditions, along with a significant reduction in sunlight. The application for the proposed extension was presented to the committee before its approval.
