Plan for 49-person HMO at Charlton Conservative Club scrapped

Plans to convert the former Conservative Club on Charlton Church Lane into a giant HMO with 30 bedsit rooms for 49 occupants have been withdrawn.

The application featured discrepancies. If you click on this link it says 26 rooms, though documents attached showed 30 rooms.

Up to nine residents would have shared a kitchen if plans had proceeded. Permission had previously been given for conversion of the club plus a new build to provide six flats and four houses on site.

Work has been ongoing on the site alongside the recent application – now withdrawn. Whether work was for that scheme or the previous proposal, dating from 2015, is unknown.

As a private renter with a young family, the cost of living is extremely high.

Support me and the site via Paypal here which allows me to focus time on researching and writing posts alongside taking photographs to document changes. Adverts are far from enough to cover living costs.
