Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of the scale, bulk, massing and increased height of the roof form, would not be in keeping with the character of the host dwellinghouse and surrounding area and would fail to respect and make a positive contribution to the street scene and character of the area contrary to policies CS21 and CS24 of the Woking Core Strategy (2012), Supplementary Planning Document Woking Design (2015) and the National Planning Policy Framework REHOUZ - Refused - HOU - decision

From the council's decision notice.
