About this application

This is a planning application for a single storey rear extension at 23 Studley Crescent Longfield Kent DA3 7JL. Dartford has handled 2,160 applications of this type. This one was decided in 36 days, 3 weeks quicker than Dartford's typical decision time. There are no previous applications recorded at this address. In the past year there have been 124 applications across Longfield, New Barn & Southfleet. We hold 1,102 applications in total for the DA3 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The extension extends to the side of the original property, adjoins a previous side extension, and its width would be more than half the width of the existing dwellinghouse and is therefore contrary to Class A paragraphs (j) (iii) and (ja). Therefore, the proposed development does not comply with Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended).

From the council's decision notice.
