About this application

This is a planning application for a rear extension at 1 Heath Barn Cottages, Send Marsh Road, Send, Woking, GU23 7DQ. Guildford has handled 7,095 applications of this type. This one was decided in 30 days, 5 weeks quicker than Guildford's typical decision time. There have been 5 other applications at this address. In the past year there have been 242 applications across Send & Lovelace. We hold 665 applications in total for the GU23 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The height of the eaves of the existing dwellinghouse is 2m. The height of the eaves of the proposed extension would be 2.8m and would exceed the height of the eaves of the existing dwellinghouse. As such, the proposed single storey rear extension would not comply with condition (d) of Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015 (as amended). It would therefore not constitute permitted development and would require full planning permission.

From the council's decision notice.
