Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development by virtue of its overall height, increase in solid built form and visual prominence would result in the introduction of an incongruous and unsympathetic feature that would be of detriment to the character and visual amenities of the surrounding area. As such, the proposal is contrary to the aims and objectives of Policy DMG1 of the Ribble Valley Core Strategy (2008-2028) and Paragraph 135 of National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
