About this application

This is a planning application for an outbuilding at The Boot Munden Road Dane End Hertfordshire SG12 0LH. East Hertfordshire has handled 13,484 applications of this type. This one was decided in 56 days, 7 days quicker than East Hertfordshire's typical decision time. The site is in 7 listed buildings nearby. There are no previous applications recorded at this address. In the past year there have been 75 applications across The Mundens. We hold 1,482 applications in total for the SG12 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The proposed materials and design would not respect the Non-Designated Heritage Asset and would cause less than substantial harm to its setting which would not be outweighed by public benefits. The application would conflict with Policies DES4, HA1, HA2, and HA7 of the EHDP 2018, The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, and the NPPF.
  2. The proposal fails to demonstrate that the development would not prejudice highway safety or parking provision, contrary to Policies TRA2 and TRA3 of the East Herts District Plan and the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
