This one was decided in 38 days, 11 days quicker than Ashfield's typical decision time. There are no previous applications recorded at this address.

Why it was refused
- The proposed residential development would result in a form of unsustainable development and would not enable good accessibility for different users and would therefore be contrary to Policies ST4, EV1 and EV2 of the ANPR 2002, Policies S3, S5, TR3, of the National Planning Policy Framework (August 2026). Significant weight is attached to this conflict. The benefits would therefore not substantially outweigh the identified adverse effects and there are therefore no exceptional circumstances in this case.
From the council's decision notice.
