Why it was refused

  1. The external materials of the development are approved and controlled by Conditions 2 (approved plans) and 3 (materials) of planning permission 22/1035/FH. The proposed changes would conflict with those conditions and cannot therefore be agreed as a non‑material amendment. Furthermore, the proposed alteration to the external materials would result in a material change to the appearance of the approved development, failing to meet the test for a non‑material amendment. Any such changes would require an application to vary the conditions of the original permission.

From the council's decision notice.
