Why it was refused

The principle of a replacement dwelling cannot be supported by AS.10 (f) or CS.20 (c), the replacement dwelling is significantly larger and the proposal would be visually intrusive, causing inappropriate harm to the character of the area. The proposal does not fall under any other provision of AS.10 and as such the proposal does not represent a sustainable form of development. As such, the development is contrary to Policies CS.1, CS.5, CS.9, AS.10 and CS.20 of the Core Strategy.
The proposed replacement dwelling would be significantly larger than the one it replaces and would have a materially greater impact on the openness of the Green Belt. There would be no special circumstances that would outweigh the harm caused. The proposal is therefore contrary to Paragraph 154 (d) of the NPPF and Policy CS.10 of the Core Strategy.
The application does not demonstrate how the development proposals will deliver a well- designed place in respect of the proposed form, density, scale, massing and appearance. As such, the application has failed to demonstrate how the proposals meet the design expectations of policies CS.5, CS.9, AS.10 and CS.20 of the Core Strategy. Case Officer: Issy Howell Reference No.
Insufficient information has been provided that clearly demonstrates no undue harm will arise to protected species. The development fails to accord with ENV 9 of the Neighbourhood Development Plan, Policy CS.6 of the Core Strategy and Paragraphs 193 of the NPPF.
