Why it was refused

  1. The certificate of lawful development for the proposed erection of a single storey side extension is not granted due to the following reason: -The proposed extension would extend from a previous single storey side extension and a previous double storey side extension, forming a wrap-around extension that would have a width greater than half the width of the original dwellinghouse. The extension therefore, does not project of an original side elevation of the property and is contrary to Part 1, Class A.1(j) (iii) of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 (as amended). As such a Certificate of Lawfulness cannot be issued.

From the council's decision notice.
