The Committee considered a report regarding the above planning application.
RESOLVED – That the application be REFUSED for the following reason:
The proposal is for a new isolated dwelling in the countryside and as such is contrary to the NPPF. The unit would not serve agricultural workers, would not relate to a heritage asset, would not relate to the re-use of redundant or disused buildings and are not of exceptional or innovative design. By reason of the isolated location of the site and lack of local public amenities it is not considered that the proposal is in a sustainable location and as such, is contrary to the NPPF. The proposal would also be contrary to Policies PS8 (Open Countryside) and H6 (Residential Development in the Open Countryside and the Green Belt) of the Congleton Borough Local Plan First Review 2005.
