Why it was refused

  1. Having reviewed the supporting submitted and additional information and existing and proposed floor plan layouts, the Council are not satisfied the proposed change of use is not a material change from the lawful use from a single dwelling house use class C3(a) to a small scale care home (use class C2) and would therefore not constitute permitted development under Schedule 2, Article 3 - Permitted Development Rights, Part 3 - Changes of use, Class C under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended).

From the council's decision notice.
