Why it was refused

  1. The proposed alterations to the first floor extension (over and above those previously granted planning permission under ref: PLAN/2025/0742), by reason of their roof design, height, and positioning in proximity to the neighbouring property to the south, no.34 Pine Tree Hill, in conjunction with the steep reduction in land level which occurs between the application site and no.34 Pine Tree Hill, would give rise to significant and severe harm to existing and future occupants of no.34 Pine Tree Hill by reason of overbearing impact and sense of enclosure to the rear patio and garden area of that adjacent property. The proposed development is therefore contrary to Policy CS21 'Design' of the Woking Core Strategy (2012), Policy BE1 'Maintaining the Character of the Village' of the Pyrford Neighbourhood Plan (2016), Supplementary Planning Documents (SPD's) Design (2015) and Outlook, Amenity, Privacy and Daylight (2022), and the provisions of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) (August 2026).

From the council's decision notice.
