Why it was refused
- By virtue of its prominent position, in addition to its overall scale and appearance, the proposed development would be out of context within this countryside setting and as such, would detrimentally impact upon the character and appearance of the countryside . The proposal is therefore considered contrary to policy MD1 (Location of New Development) of the Vale of Glamorgan Local Development Plan.
- By virtue of its location on the adopted highway and the lack of off-street parking, the proposal would during its operational phase give rise to a need for vehicle(s) to park on the adopted highway, thus resulting in a reduction in visibility for highway users and and obstructions to vehicles and pedestrians / cyclists, impacting on highway safety. The proposals are therefore considered detrimental to highway safety and as such are contrary policy MD2 (Design of New Development) of the Vale of Glamorgan Local Development Plan.
From the council's decision notice.
