Why it was refused

The proposed development would fail to satisfy the criteria contained in Schedule 2, Part 1, Class (j) and Class (d) (b, c) of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended), as the proposed two storey rear extension would extend beyond a wall forming a side elevation of the original dwellinghouse and would be more than half the width of the original dwellinghouse, would have more than one storey and would be more than 4m high, and the porch would have a ground area greater than 3m2 and a height taller than 3m above ground level. Accordingly, the application for a Certificate of Lawful Development (Proposed) should be refused.
