Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed first-floor side extension, partial conversion of garage into living space and alterations to fenestration constitute permitted development under the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015
What decided it
The proposed first-floor side extension fails to comply with Class A.1(i) of the Permitted Development Order as it would be within 2m of the curtilage boundary with eaves height exceeding 3m, and therefore the entire scheme cannot be permitted development.
