26 Melbourne Road, Bushey, WD23 3LN

Planning appeal 3280752 at 26 Melbourne Road, Bushey, WD23 3LN (Hertsmere Borough Council) was dismissed on 1 April 2022 by Inspector Chandler M, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: Whether the proposal represents permitted development by virtue of Schedule 2, Part 1, Class AA of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended).

The proposal is to add one additional storey to the principal part of the building, which is an end property in a terrace of 3. All external materials will match the existing building. There will be no windows in the side elevation. The front and rear windows would result in no overlooking to other properties
