Why it was refused
- The proposal would, by virtue of its rearward projection, scale and siting, result in a detrimental impact upon the amenities of the neighbouring dwelling at No. 42 Stour Road, by reason of loss of daylight, loss of outlook and an overbearing impact to the kitchen window serving the neighbouring property. The proposal would therefore be contrary to Policy PMD1 of the adopted Core Strategy (2015), the Residential Alterations and Extensions SPD (September 2017) and the National Planning Policy Framework (2024).
From the council's decision notice.
