On being put to the vote it was UNANIMOUSLY cast IN FAVOUR OF REFUSAL.
DECISION: That the application be REFUSED for the following reasons:
Visually the application site formed part of a larger open area which adjoined the green belt.

As such, the development would be contrary to the requirements of Local Plan Policies 9 (Local Environment), 24 (Historic Environment), and Policies JP-P1 (Sustainable Places) and JP-P2 (Heritage) of the Places for Everyone Joint Development Plan.
