Why it was refused

  1. The proposed carport would be a dominant and incongruous addition prominently located at the front of the site where this would be at odds with the established settlement form and spacious frontages of the street scene, to the detriment of the character and appearance of the surrounding area. It fails to satisfy the expectations of Appendix D of the Wiltshire Design Guide and DC.04.4d of the Calne Community Neighbourhood Plan Part B Design Guidelines and Codes (Made March 2025) and is found contrary to Policy BE1 of the Calne Community Neighbourhood Plan Part A (Made March 2025), Core Policy 57 (i, iii, vi) of the Wiltshire Core Strategy (January 2015), and paragraphs 131, 135 and 139 of the National Planning Policy Framework (December 2024).

From the council's decision notice.
