Why it was refused
Reason 1

This due to lack of disabled, parking, insufficient design of car parking which would provide unsuitable access to the bike shed for cyclists. Furthermore no provision for EV charging is proposed.

Reason 3

The proposal would have an unacceptable external appearance when considered both in relation to the host building and in relation to the surrounding area contrary to Schedule 2, Part 20, Class A A.2 (e) of the General Permitted Development Order 2015 (as amended).

Reason 4

The proposal would have an unacceptable impact on the amenity of existing and neighbouring occupiers by way of adverse impacts on outlook and adverse impact on daylight contrary to Schedule 2, Part 20, Class A A.2 (g) of the General Permitted Development Order 2015 (as amended).
