About this application
This is a planning application for an extension at Akwaba Dukes Covert Bagshot Surrey GU19 5HU. Surrey Heath has handled 2,309 applications of this type. This one was decided in 39 days, 2 weeks quicker than Surrey Heath's typical decision time. There have been 3 other applications at this address. In the past year there have been 92 applications across Bagshot. We hold 113 applications in total for the GU19 postcode area.
Why it was refused
- The proposed extension would extend beyond a wall forming a side elevation of the original dwellinghouse and have a width greater than half the width of the original dwellinghouse. Therefore, the development would not comply with Schedule 2, Part 1, Class A(j)(iii) of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended). The development therefore requires planning permission.
From the council's decision notice.
