Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of its location within Flood Zones 2 and 3 and the absence of sufficient information to demonstrate that it would be safe for its lifetime and fails to adequately address or mitigate flood risk concerns. As such the proposal would result in an unacceptable risk of flooding for both existing and future occupiers. The application is contrary to Policy ST1 (b) of the Ashfield Local Plan Review (2002), and Part 18, F6 of the National Planning Policy Framework (2026).
  2. The application has failed to demonstrate that safe and suitable access can be achieved for the proposed development. The proposed access arrangements and internal site layout are considered inadequate to safely accommodate the development, resulting in an unacceptable impact on highway safety. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy ST1(c) of the Ashfield Local Plan Review (2002), and Part 15, TR6 of the NPPF (2026).

From the council's decision notice.
