  1. The proposed single storey rear extension does not benefit from a general planning permission under Article 3(1) and Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) as it would adjoin existing enlargements to the original dwellinghouse resulting in the total enlargement exceeding the limitations of sub- paragraphs (f), (g), (h), (i) and (j) of Class A by reason of sub-paragraph (ja) of Class A.
