Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development by virtue of its siting, would not be satisfactorily sited in relation to any existing buildings in order to minimise its impact on the landscape and the proposal has not demonstrated adequate provision for access and movement of machinery. In the opinion of the local planning authority, the development would be contrary to Policies STRAT 9 and ENV 6 of the Cheshire West and Chester Local Plan Part One (2015) and Policies DM 3 and DM 6 of the Cheshire West and Chester Local Plan Part Two (2019). You have the right to appeal this decision to the Planning Inspectorate. Details of how to appeal are provided at the Planning Inspectorate website https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/model- notification-notice-to-be-sent-to-an-applicant-when-permission-is-refused. I hope this information is of use to you, please contact me should you require any further information.

From the council's decision notice.
