Why it was refused

The proposed development, by virtue of its scale and massing, represents a significant increase to the built form of the site which would result in a significantly greater and more harmful impact on the rural character of the site and the surrounding development. The proposal therefore represents an inappropriate form of development that would fail to protect, conserve, or enhance the landscape character of the area, contrary to Policies 28 and 33 of the Horsham District Planning Framework (2015).
Insufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposed development would have no adverse impact on nearby trees, contrary to Policies 31 and 33(6) of the Horsham District Planning Framework (2015) and paragraph 193 of the NPPF.
