Why it was refused
- The proposed development would fail to satisfy the criteria set out in Paragraph A.1(j)(iii), for the permitted development in Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) because; one of the proposed single storey rear extensions would extend beyond a wall forming a side elevation of the original dwelling house and have a width greater than half the width of the original dwellinghouse.
From the council's decision notice.
