Why it was refused

  1. The uninhabitable condition of the stone farmhouse buildings are as a result of the action and/or inaction of persons having an interest in the land on which the building stands and it is practicable to secure safety or health by works of repair or works for affording temporary support in this case. The proposal therefore fails to satisfy the requirement of B1.A of Schedule 2, Part 11, Class B of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, such that demolition works proposed cannot be construed as being permitted development.
  2. Had the submission complied with part B1.A of Schedule 2, Part 11, Class B of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, the lack of information in respect of protected species is such that the Local Planning Authority is unable to discharge its legal duties under the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 and the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 to ensure no adverse effects and the development is contrary to Policy SC9 of the Adopted Local Plan for Bolsover District (2020) which requires development proposals to conserve and enhance the biodiversity of the District. 26/00270/DEMDET Page 1 of 5 Statement of Decision Process The proposal has been considered against the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015, Schedule 2, Part 11, Class B, and whilst additional information was submitted in respect of the requirements under part B1.A this was not considered to adequately demonstrate compliance with that part.

From the council's decision notice.
