A planning application submitted to Harrow Council seeks permission to demolish the existing house at 11 Old Hall Close, Pinner, and replace it with a larger home. The proposal, registered as PL/2028/26, includes single and two-storey extensions at the front and rear, and a first-floor side extension.
The application states the demolition is partly retrospective, meaning work may have already begun without prior approval. The new build would expand the footprint of the property on the residential street, which is located near Pinner Memorial Park and local schools.
