Why it was refused

  1. The development by virtue of its position, materials and unduly prominent feature would result in an incongruous addition to the street scene which would be materially harmful to the surrounding area, and it would therefore be contrary to the provisions of subsections 1.a.i, 1.a.iv and 1.a.vi of Policy PP27 of the Poole Local Plan (2018).

From the council's decision notice.
