About this application

This is a planning application for a rear extension at 28 Frobisher Gardens, Guildford, GU1 2NT. Guildford has handled 7,095 applications of this type. This one was decided in 35 days, 4 weeks quicker than Guildford's typical decision time. There has been 1 other application at this address. In the past year there have been 81 applications across Merrow. We hold 772 applications in total for the GU1 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The submitted plans show that the materials used would not match those used in the construction of the exterior of the existing dwellinghouse. The proposal would therefore fail to comply with condition A.3(a) of Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order, 2015 (as amended). It would not constitute permitted development and would require full planning permission.

From the council's decision notice.
