Condition Details / Information Notes
The proposed development would be outside the defined settlement boundary for Abberley Common and within the open countryside. The elevated location of the site relative to its surroundings would give rise to an unduly prominent and intrusive development impacting detrimentally upon Key Views 8, 9 and 10 identified in the Abberley Neighbourhood Development Plan 2020 – 2030 (made version July 2021) and would have an adverse impact upon the intrinsic landscape character of the area. The harm identified would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of the scheme. The proposal would therefore be contrary to policies SWDP 2 and 25 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan (adopted February 2016), Policies ABY5 and ABY6 of the Abberley Neighbourhood Development Plan 2020 – 2030 (made version July 2021) and paragraphs 8, 84 and 180 of the NPPF.
Positive and Proactive Statement. In dealing with this application, the Council has worked with the applicant in the following ways:- providing pre-application advice; - seeking further information following receipt of the application; - seeking amendments to the proposed development following receipt of the application; In such ways the Council has demonstrated a positive and proactive manner in seeking solutions to problems arising in relation to the planning application. This is in accordance with paragraph 38 of the NPPF.  Despite these efforts, the Council still consider that planning permission should be refused for the reasons set out above.
