Why it was refused

  1. The proposed change of use of the site from woodland to private domestic garden and the erection of a garden room at 7 Ffordd Haearn, by reason of its form and siting, would result in the loss of an established unmanaged landscaped buffer to the detriment of the visual amenities of the area. It is considered that the development is not in keeping with the established grain and land use pattern of the area and does not represent a sustainable form of development through good placemaking or through supporting climate change mitigation or adaptation contrary to Policies SF1, SP3, SP8 and SP9 of the Bridgend Replacement Local Development Plan (2024) and guidance contained within adopted Supplementary Planning Guidance 07: Trees and Development, Technical Advice Note 12: Design and Planning Policy Wales 12 (Feb. 2024).
  2. The proposed change of use of the site from woodland to private domestic garden and the erection of a garden room at 7 Ffordd Haearn would result in an irreparable loss of trees and vegetation which will sever an established green corridor to the detriment of the biodiversity characteristics of the site, contrary to Policies SP3, SP4, SP17, DNP6, DNP7, DNP8 and DNP9 of the Bridgend Replacement Local Development Plan (2024) and guidance contained within Supplementary Planning Guidance 07: Trees and Development, Supplementary Planning Guidance 19: Biodiversity and Development, Technical Advice Notes 5: Nature Conservation and Planning and 12: Design and Planning Policy Wales Edition 12 (Feb. 2024).
