About this application

This is a planning application for a single storey rear extension at 63 Curteys Walk, Bewbush, Crawley. Crawley has handled 743 applications of this type. This one was decided in 42 days, 2 weeks quicker than Crawley's typical decision time. There are no previous applications recorded at this address. We hold 450 applications in total for the RH11 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The proposed single storey rear extension would extend beyond a wall forming a side elevation of the original dwellinghouse and would have a width greater than half the width of the original dwellinghouse. As a result, the extension would fail to comply with Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A (j) of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) and it would not form permitted development under this Class. The extension would not comply with the conditions, limitations or restrictions applicable to development permitted by Class A which exceeds the limits in paragraph A.1 (j) and therefore, in accordance with Schedule 2, Part 1, A.4 (3)(a), the Local Planning Authority refuses prior approval for the proposed extension.

From the council's decision notice.
