Why it was refused
- The proposal results in unjustified and unacceptable harm to an irreplaceable habitat (Ancient Woodland also a designated Special Wildlife Site) and does not meet any the wholly exceptional circumstances identified in the National Planning Policy Framework nor is it outweighed by any demonstrable public benefits. The proposal would therefore be contrary to policy LD2 of the Herefordshire Local Plan – Core Strategy, policy CH1 of the Callow and Haywood Neighbourhood Development Plan, the National Planning Policy Framework, the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017, as amended by the Conservation of Habitats and Species (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 (the ‘Habitats Regulations’) and the Wildlife & Countryside Act (1981 amended).
From the council's decision notice.
