Why it was refused

  1. Reason for refusal: The proposed development does not meet the criteria for permitted development under Schedule 2 Part 1 Class B B.1 (d)(ii) and (iii) of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 as the information provided is not sufficiently clear, precise, and unambiguous to demonstrate the total additional volume proposed is within the 50 cubic metre allowance. The proposed development does not meet the criteria for permitted development under Schedule 2, Part 1 Class B B.2 (a) of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) as the proposed external materials would not be similar in appearance to those used in the construction of the exterior of the existing dwelling house.

From the council's decision notice.
