Why it was refused

The proposed development is therefore contrary to Policies BN7 and BN7A as contained within the West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy Local Plan (Part 1) and local guidance: Local Standards and Guidance for Surface Water Drainage in Northamptonshire document. This application is refused under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and/or the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.
From the council's decision notice.
