Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of its siting, scale, design and visibility, would result in a visually prominent and separate form of development that would harm the rural character and appearance of the site and its surroundings. The building would appear visually disconnected from the host dwelling and, rather than reading as a subordinate ancillary structure, would appear as a distinct and standalone form of development. As such, the proposal would represent an intrusive and incongruous feature within the rural landscape, contrary to Policies AW5 Criterion (a) and AW6 Criteria 1, 2 and 14 of the Rhondda Cynon Taf Local Development Plan.

From the council's decision notice.
