Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development does not comply with the conditions, limitations or restrictions applicable to development permitted by Class A which exceeds the limits in paragraph A.1(f) but is allowed by paragraph A.1(g). The submitted plans include the construction of a rear raised platform and the installation of new windows and doors to the host property. These works fall outside of the limitations and restrictions of an application for Prior Approval larger home extension under Class A of Part 1, Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended).

From the council's decision notice.
