Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development would not be subservient to the host property. As a result of its scale, massing and design, the proposal would result in a dominant and incongruous form of development, which would be harmfully at odds with the character and appearance of the area and host property. Therefore, the proposal does not accord with the requirements of Local Plan policy CLP20, the adopted Residential SPD and Part 12 of the National Planning Policy Framework. Statement of Positive and Pro-active Working with Applicant In accordance with the requirements of the Town and Country Planning (Development Management Procedure) (England) (Amendment No. 2) Order 2015 and paragraph 39 of the 2024 National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) as the proposed development is in conflict with the NPPF or with 'up-to-date' policies of the Local Plan, it is not considered to be 'sustainable development' to which the presumption in favour of the development applies. The Local Planning Authority considered the merits of the submitted application and judged that there was no prospect of resolving the fundamental planning problems with it through negotiation, despite attempts to resolve the issues relating to the proposed design during consideration of an earlier planning application.

From the council's decision notice.
