Why it was refused
- The proposed extension, in terms of its design, scale and siting, would be a disproportionate and incongruous addition and would be detrimental to the character and appearance of the dwellinghouse and the surrounding area, contrary to Policies OA1 of Bolton's Core Strategy, JP-P1 of Places for Everyone and Supplementary Planning Document - "House Extensions".
- The proposed extension, due to its design, size, massing and siting would have a detrimental impact on the setting of the non-designated heritage asset Ivy Model Farm and is thereby contrary to policy OA1 of Bolton's Core Strategy, policy JP-P2 of Places for Everyone and section 16 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
From the council's decision notice.
