Why it was refused
- By virtue of its size, scale and siting, the proposed outbuilding would appear cramped and out of context within the streetscene and would detract from the character of the existing dwelling. As such the proposal would conflict with Policies SWDPR 28 and SWDPR 05 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2026.
- By virtue of the siting, scale and massing of the proposed outbuilding, the development would have an unacceptable adverse impact on the living conditions of the adjoining property at No.28 School road, creating overshadowing and obstruction of light and outlook. The proposal is therefore contrary to policy SWDPR 28 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review 2026.
From the council's decision notice.
