Havering Council’s weekly round up of planning applications

Havering Council has received a series of planning applications for a range of developments across the borough in the last week. 

These applications cover a variety of proposals, from single-storey extensions to changes in land use and the construction of new buildings.

The council is currently reviewing each application and has yet to make a decision on any of them.

One of the applications, reference number D0248.23, pertains to 2 Alexandra Road in Rainham. The applicant is seeking a Certificate of Lawfulness for a single-storey rear extension.

Similarly, application P0865.23 requests permission for a single-storey front extension at 323 Goodwood Avenue in Hornchurch.

Another notable application, P0868.23, involves a change of use from a dwelling (C3) to a children’s care home (C2) at 14A Lower Mardyke Avenue in Rainham. The proposal aims to meet the demand for childcare facilities in the area.

In Romford, application P0871.23 seeks permission for a single-storey rear extension at 31 Priory Road, while application P0861.23 requests the construction of two single-storey outbuildings for use as a home gym and playroom at 24 Freshfields Avenue in Upminster.

The council has also received applications for retrospective approval. For instance, application P0862.23 is a retrospective application for the retention of changes made to an approved outbuilding at 131 Betterton Road in Rainham.

Meanwhile, a proposal at 111 Lambs Lane South in Rainham involves the demolition of an existing fire-damaged bungalow and garage. The applicant intends to construct a single-storey, four-bedroom dwelling with a habitable roof space.

Several applications relate to certificates of lawfulness for loft and roof conversions. References D0240.23 and D0242.23 pertain to addresses in Upminster and Romford, respectively, and both seek approval for various modifications to existing roof spaces.

Additionally, application P0856.23 at Fen Lane in Bulphan aims to vary a condition of a previous planning permission to allow for an increase in HGV movements as part of a renewable energy generation project.

Other applications include proposals for home office conversions, garage conversions, and extensions at various locations in Hornchurch, Romford, and Upminster.
