Why it was refused
- The proposed signs Numbers 8 and 10 as detailed on plan 103541 rev 11b due to their size, extent of covering would appear overly dominant and out-of-keeping with the rural character of that village resulting in material harm to the visual amenity of the area. Therefore the proposal would not comply with the policies D4 and D10 of the LPDMP.
From the council's decision notice.
