Why it was refused

  1. The erection of two detached dwellinghouses and resultant loss of natural environment would result in harm to the character, visual amenity and purpose of the Green Corridor / Wedge in this location. In addition, it is not considered that the 'very exceptional circumstances' required for the resultant loss of Green Corridor / Green Wedge have been demonstrated in this instance. The proposal would not result in any significant community and environmental benefits or measures which would compensate for the loss of green corridor within the locality. The development is therefore contrary to Policy G12 of the South Ribble Local Plan.

From the council's decision notice.
