Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development does not meet the criteria of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) Order 2015, Schedule 2, Part 1 and Class A, j (iii). As the extension adjoins a side and rear wall it does not meet the criteria for Permitted Development as combined the other extensions, they would have a width greater than half the width of the original dwellinghouse.

From the council's decision notice.
