About this application

This is a planning application for a single storey rear extension at 219 FARMFIELD ROAD, BROMLEY, BR1 4NQ. Lewisham has handled 9,155 applications of this type. This one was decided in 37 days, 3 weeks quicker than Lewisham's typical decision time. There have been 2 other applications at this address. In the past year there have been 68 applications across Downham. We hold 2,803 applications in total for the BR1 postcode area.

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 show the alteration of an existing soil and vent pipe and the installation of front roof lights. Such works fall outside of the limitations and restrictions of an application for a 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.
