Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development would result in unacceptable overlooking, leading to a loss of privacy for the occupiers of 3 Langford Court and causing significant adverse harm to their residential amenity. As such, the proposal conflicts with paragraph 135(f) of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), Policy SOC5 of the Cheshire West and Chester Local Plan (Part 1), and Policies DM2 and DM21 of the Cheshire West and Chester Local Plan (Part
  2. , as well as the guidance set out within the relevant Supplementary Planning Document (SPD).

From the council's decision notice.
