Why it was refused

  1. The application has failed to include details of displaying a site notice and as such the application fails to comply with B.2 (b) (ii) and (iv) of Schedule 2, Part 11, Class B of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended). Prior approval is therefore refused.
