Why it was refused

  1. By virtue of the distance and substandard walking route between the application site and the closest settlement and services, future occupiers of the proposed dwelling would likely be highly reliant on the private car. Consequently, the development would not support the principle of locating new residential development in sustainable locations. The development would, therefore, conflict with Policies SP1 - Delivering the Strategy, MD1 - Location of New Development and MD2 - Design of New Development of the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011-2026 as well as national policy identified within Planning Policy Wales (Edition 12, 2024).
  2. By virtue of the lack of suitable evidence of marketing for alternative uses, it has not been demonstrated that the use of the property as a residential dwelling is the only viable alternative. The development would, therefore, conflict with policy MD11 - Conversion and Renovation of Rural Buildings of the Vale of Glamorgan Adopted Local Development Plan 2011-2026.
