Why it was refused

  1. The erected boundary fencing appears as an obvious and incongruent addition that is at odds with the prevailing form of development in the area, to the detriment of visual amenity. The proposal is therefore contrary to ST1 and HG7 of the ALPR (2002) and Part 12 of the NPPF (2024).
  2. The erected boundary fencing significantly reduces the visibility when entering and egressing from Mapplewells Crescent and results in an unacceptable impact on highway safety. The proposal is therefore contrary to ST1 and HG7 of the ALPR (2002) and Part 9 of the NPPF (2024).

From the council's decision notice.
