Why it was refused

  1. The proposed front boundary treatment, by reason of its excessive height, scale, bulk, siting, and overall prominence along an extended frontage, would appear unduly dominant, visually intrusive, and incongruous within the street scene. The development would erode the prevailing open character of front boundaries along Gordon Rise, which are typically defined by low level enclosures and soft landscaping, and would introduce a stark and overly defensive form of development that fails to respond positively to local context. As such, the proposal would result in significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and the visual amenity of the street scene, contrary to Policy 10 of the Aligned Core Strategy ( ACS), and Policies DE1 and DE2 of the Land and Planning Policies Document ( LAPP).

From the council's decision notice.
