Why it was refused
- By virtue of its design and prominent location, the fence would cause unacceptable harm to the visual amenity and open character of the area. The development fails to respect the existing layout and character of the surrounding built environment and therefore is contrary to criteria b), c), e) and g) of Policy DES1 of the Adopted Monmouthshire Local Development Plan.
- By virtue of its scale, materials and continuous solid form, the fence fails to preserve or enhance the special character of the Chepstow Conservation Area, contrary to Policy HE1 (a, c and d) of the Monmouthshire Local Development Plan and to Section 160 of the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023.

Os ydych eisiau apelio, yna mae'n rhaid i chi wneud hynny o fewn chwe mis o ddyddiad yr hysbysiad hwn yn defnyddio ffurflen sydd ar gael gan yr PEDW, Parc Cathays, Caerdydd CF10 3NQ. Fodd bynnag, os yw'r datblygiad yn ddeiliad tŷ neu ddatblygiad masnachol bach, y cyfnod apêl yw 12 wythnos. Gall Llywodraeth Cymru ganiatáu cyfnod hirach ar gyfer rhoi hysbysiad apêl ond ni fydd fel arfer yn barod i ddefnyddio'r pŵer yma os nad oes amgylchiadau arbennig sy'n esgusodi'r oedi wrth roi hysbysiad o'r apêl. Nid yw'n rhaid i Lywodraeth Cymru ystyried apêl os yw'n ymddangos na allai'r Awdurdod Cynllunio Lleol fod wedi rhoi caniatâd cynllunio gan roi ystyriaeth i ofynion statudol, darpariaethau'r gorchymyn datblygu ac unrhyw gyfarwyddiadau a roddwyd dan y gorchymyn. Yn ymarferol nid yw Llywodraeth Cymru yn gwrthod ystyried apeliadau yn unig oherwydd bod yr Awdurdod Cynllunio Lleol wedi seilio eu penderfyniad ar gyfarwyddyd a roddwyd gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Mae dewis o 3 gweithdrefn apêl. Caiff Arolygydd ei benodi i benderfynu ar yr apêl ym mhob achos. Sylwadau Ysgrifenedig - yr ydych chi a'r awdurdod cynllunio lleol yn gwneud datganiadau ysgrifenedig i gael eu hystyried gan yr Arolygydd. Gwrandawiad Anffurfiol - caiff datganiadau ysgrifenedig eu paratoi fel uchod ond mae pob parti yn ymddangos mewn person gerbron yr Arolygydd. Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus - mae hyn yn broses ffurfiol, mae pob parti yn ymddangos gerbron yr Arolygydd, fel arfer gyda chynrychiolaeth gyfreithiol a chroesholi. Hysbysiadau Prynu Os yw un ai'r Awdurdod Cynllunio Lleol neu Lywodraeth Cymru yn gwrthod caniatâd i ddatblygu tir neu ei roi yn ddarostyngedig i amodau, gall perchennog y tir hawlio na all naill ai wneud defnydd rhesymol fuddiol o'r tir yn ei gyflwr presennol na gwneud y tir yn alluog o ddefnydd rhesymol fuddiol drwy wneud unrhyw waith datblygu sydd wedi neu a fyddai'n cael ei ganiatáu. Yn yr amgylchiadau hyn gall y perchennog gyflwyno hysbysiad prynu i'r Cyngor lle mae'r tir wedi'i leoli. Bydd yr hysbysiad yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i'r Cyngor brynu ei ddiddordeb yn y tir yn unol â darpariaethau Rhan VI Deddf Cynllunio Tref a Gwlad 1990.
