Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development that is set out within the description proposed swimming pool for this lawful development certificate application and detailed on drawings numbered JN007 and JN008 and the site plan titled '120 Howgate Road, Bembridge, PO35 5QZ' dated 20 July 2026 edged red comprises development within the meaning of section 55(1) of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 but would not comply with the requirements of Schedule 2 Part 1 Class E of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development)(England) Order 2015 (as amended) and therefore is not considered to be permitted development.

From the council's decision notice.
