In the past year there have been 131 applications across Banstead Village. We hold 418 applications in total for the SM7 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The application submitted for prior approval under the provisions of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended), Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A is refused as it does not meet all criteria as set out in Class A as the proposal would not comply with criterion (d) because the extension would exceed the height of the eaves of the existing dwellinghouse. The proposal is therefore not permitted development.

From the council's decision notice.
