About this application
This is a planning application at Lundy, 10 Newark Close, Ripley, Woking, GU23 6DW. Guildford has handled 7,112 applications of this type. This one was decided in 36 days, 4 weeks quicker than Guildford's typical decision time. There have been 3 other applications at this address. In the past year there have been 235 applications across Send & Lovelace. We hold 667 applications in total for the GU23 postcode area.
Why it was refused
- The proposed additional storey, due to the fenestration arrangements with narrow, high level windows on its south and north elevations and lack of windows completely at first floor on the east and west elevations would result in a predominantly solid, blank expanse of walling which would have an unacceptable adverse impact on the character and appearance of the elevations. The proposal therefore fails to comply with the requirements of AA.2.(3)(a)(ii) of Schedule 2, Part 1, Class AA of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended).
From the council's decision notice.
