About this application

This is a planning application for an extension at 79 The Hyde Ware Hertfordshire SG12 0ER. East Hertfordshire has handled 13,484 applications of this type. This one was decided in 56 days, 7 days quicker than East Hertfordshire's typical decision time. There are no previous applications recorded at this address. In the past year there have been 45 applications across Ware St Mary's. We hold 1,482 applications in total for the SG12 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development above the linked carport and the conversion of the carport to a habitable room would result in an incongruous and uncharacteristic form of development that would detract from the uniform character of the surrounding area. The development would fail to respect the established pattern of development and the relationship of the dwellings within the street scene contrary to Policies HOU11 and DES4 of the East Herts District Plan and the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
