Why it was refused

  1. The development by virtue of its location and land use, its close proximity to the railway and motorway, along with its isolated location outside the village boundary of Alvechurch and lacking sustainable and safe access to amenities and facilities is considered to be unacceptable and contrary to policy BDP1, BDP2, BDP16 of The Bromsgrove District Plan 2017, Alvechurch Neighbourhood Plan 2019 and the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
