Why it was refused

  1. The proposed outbuilding falls within 2m of the boundary of the curtilage of the dwellinghouse and has a height exceeding 2.5m. The height of the eaves of the proposed outbuilding would also exceed 2.5m. This would be contrary to the criteria of Paragraphs E.1(e) and E.1(f) of Class E, Part 1, Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended).

From the council's decision notice.
