Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by virtue of its size and position in the vicinity of a number of protected buildings, is not considered to satisfy criteria (e.i) and (i) of Part A.1 of Class A of Part 6 of Schedule 2 of the Town and Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended). Based on the submitted plans, supporting documentation, and the findings of this report the proposals are not therefore considered to benefit from the provisions of this agricultural permitted development right and prior approval is refused.
  2. The proposed development, by virtue of its raised position and overall height has potential to significantly impact the character, setting and visual amenities of the area, which is situated in a Special Landscape Area. The siting of the proposals therefore needs detailed approval in line with Condition A.2, criterion 2 (i) of Class A of Part 6 of Schedule 2 of the Town & Country Planning (General Permitted Development) (England) Order 2015 (as amended) (the GDPO) and is refused.

From the council's decision notice.
