Why it was refused

  1. The development would provide poor quality accommodation for the occupiers of the proposed flats by virtue of inadequate internal floor space and insufficient ceiling height. As such the scheme is contrary to Policy PG3 of the Birmingham Development Plan 2017, Policies DM2 and DM10 of the Development Management in Birmingham DPD 2021 and the National Planning Policy Framework 2026.

From the council's decision notice.
