Why it was refused

  1. The outbuilding, by reason of its excessive height, roof form and siting adjacent to neighbouring boundaries, represents an unduly dominant and visually intrusive form of development. The building is materially different to the previously approved outbuilding and has a greater visual presence within the site due to its increased height and altered roof form resulting in harm to the character and appearance of the area and an unacceptable overbearing impact on neighbouring occupiers, contrary to Policy CS41 of the Bournemouth Local Plan: Core Strategy (2012) and the NPPF (2026).

From the council's decision notice.
