About this application

This is a planning application for a two storey rear extension at 19 Mill Road Ashley Newmarket Suffolk CB8 9EE. East Cambridgeshire has handled 4,241 applications of this type. This one was decided in 62 days, 3 weeks longer than East Cambridgeshire's typical decision time. The site is in 1 listed building nearby. There are no previous applications recorded at this address. We hold 1,572 applications in total for the CB8 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by virtue of its design, scale, and massing, would fail to relate sympathetically to the character and appearance of the existing dwelling, resulting in a disproportionate and visually disjointed addition that would relate poorly to the original building. This is contrary to the aims and objectives of Policies ENV1 and ENV2 of the East Cambridgeshire Local Plan 2015 (as amended 2023), the East Cambridgeshire Design Guide SPD 2012, and Policy DP3 of the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
