3.1 Pre-Application Meeting
A pre-application meeting was held with Merton Council
on the 6th of June, 2017.
The scheme presented is shown to the right, and
consisted of the refurbishment of the pub and its side
building, and an annex building to the rear. Southern Views

The scheme presented at the pre-application meeting
received the following feedback:
1. Retention of the pub meets policy and heritage
aspirations.
2. Relationship of residential and public house to be
considered, especially the landscaped courtyard.
3. General principle of backland development is accepted.
a. Scale of development needs to be considered further,
especially in relation to the long view looking from Cricket
Green; rear development should sit below ridgeline of
existing building.
b. Overlooking will need to be considered

20 The White Hart Inn, London Road, Mitcham | Design and Access Statement - Revision 013.3 Planning Substitution
This document forms part of a Planning Substitution, to
supercede the previous Design & Access submitted with
the planning application registered on 20/11/2019, with
application reference 18/P2216.
The original submitted scheme included conversion of
some of the ancillary pub spaces (including kitchens) to
residential dwellings.
The revised scheme proposed in this document retains all
areas associated with the pub. The only minor alteration
to the listed building is in regards to the removal of the
external egress stair. This is proposed to move to the
interior of the building, with the egress door proposed as
a sympathetic alteration to the inn building facade.
Further, the servicing of the pub was questioned. It is now
serviced completely from the rear (entry from Broadway
Gardens); this can be evidenced in the updated Transport
Statement included with this Planning Substitution.
Finally, the retention of the pub in its current form allows Previously Submitted Scheme
the annex to exist as a separate entity, though pub
deliveries will be made via a shared breezeway, with the
courtyard acting as a buffer between the two use classes.
The use of landscaping clearly defines the boundaries of
the pub exterior space, and the communal residential
amenity.

Bays and Balconies
The White Heart - Existing pub retained Bronze finish
• The bays and balconies will incorporate metal
balustrades
• Most of the balconies are inset, which lends depth and
richness to the elevation
• Where inset balconies are not possible, projecting
balconies are introduced to ensure that every new-

therefore preventing any obtrusive overshadowing.
The images to the right show the scheme at the equinox
(March / September 21) at 10 am, 12 pm, 2 pm, and 4

Combined with the proposed annex building, a generous
courtyard space is created as the heart of the residential
development.
This courtyard will act as a high quality communal
amenity for the residential users, as well as being the
main point of access for the residential units.
It is also proposed that the pub will have a high-quality
landscaped garden within the courtyard.

54 The White Hart Inn, London Road, Mitcham | Design and Access Statement - Revision 0110.0 Conclusion
10.0 Conclusion This document forms part of the application of the redevelopment opportunities at the site of the White Hart pub at 350 London Road (London Borough of Merton). It has provided a thorough analysis of the site, followed by a chronological review of the design development and consultation process. From the first pre-application to the current proposal, the scheme has evolved to avoid any negative impact on the existing townscape and on neighbours. The massing has been sculpted to fit comfortably within the existing context. Further, the scheme has been refined to ensure the annex building does not appear prominently in sensitive views, specifically looking north on Cricket Green. A variety of measures have been incorporated in the design to ensure there is no overlooking to adjacent properties and to safeguard the existing neighbours and the future occupiers’ privacy. Additionally, the landscape strategy has been developed to create a central green space to incorporate amenity space for the residents. 56 The White Hart Inn, London Road, Mitcham | Design and Access Statement - Revision 01
