Why it was refused
- The boundary fencing, associated pedestrian and vehicle access would, by virtue of its design, height and siting be detrimental to the character and appearance of the area and is contrary to Policy JP-P1 of Places for Everyone Joint Development Plan, Core Policy OA5 and Supplementary Planning Document - "House Extensions".
From the council's decision notice.
