About this application
This is a planning application for a rear extension at Pen Tor, Shere Road, West Horsley, Leatherhead, KT24 6EQ. Guildford has handled 7,112 applications of this type. This one was decided in 42 days, 3 weeks quicker than Guildford's typical decision time. There have been 3 other applications at this address. In the past year there have been 300 applications across Clandon & Horsley. We hold 959 applications in total for the KT24 postcode area.
Why it was refused
- The proposed extension would be within 2 metres of the boundary of the curtilage and the height of the eaves would exceed 3 metres. Therefore, the proposal fails to comply with paragraph A(i) of Class A, of Part 1, of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended). The proposal would therefore not constitute permitted development.
From the council's decision notice.
