Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of its position and height in conjunction with the cumulative effect of existing extensions, is considered to result in a significant unacceptable loss of light impact and an unacceptable overbearing impact towards the adjoining neighbouring property at No.141 Maybury Road contrary to policy CS21 of the Woking Core Strategy (2012), Supplementary Planning Document Outlook, Amenity, Privacy and Daylight (2022) and the National Planning Policy Framework (2026).

From the council's decision notice.
