Why it was refused
- On the basis of the information submitted, the proposed outbuilding is not deemed to be 'permitted development' under the terms of The Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (Amendment) (No.2) (England) Order 2008 Part 1 Class E as the overall height of the resulting structure would be exceeding the permitted limits, and an application for planning permission would therefore be required.
From the council's decision notice.
