About this application

This is a planning application for a garage at Whiteoaks Manor Road Abbots Leigh BS8 3RT. North Somerset has handled 17,060 applications of this type. This one was decided in 58 days. There have been 2 other applications at this address. In the past year there have been 49 applications across Pill. We hold 3,847 applications in total for the BS8 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The proposal constitutes inappropriate development within the Green Belt that would be harmful to the openness of the Green Belt and conflict with the purposes of including land within it. No very special circumstances outweigh the harm caused and the proposal is therefore contrary to policy CS6 of the North Somerset Core Strategy, policy DM12 of the North Somerset Sites and Policies Plan (Part 1) and the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
