Refusal
Mr L Magill C/O Elevate
Planning Group, 52 York
Street, Belfast
Land adjacent to No.4 Branch Road, Carnlough
Site of dwelling and garage (infill)
The proposal is contrary to Policy NV2 of Larne Area Plan 2010 in that the site
lies within a Special Countryside Area and the development is not considered as
such national or regional importance as to outweigh any potential detrimental
impact to the coastal environment and alternative sites exist within the
development limits of Carnlough outside this Special Countryside Area.
The proposal is contrary to Policies CTY1 and CTY8 of Draft Planning Policy
Statement 21, Sustainable Development in the Countryside in that the proposal
would, if permitted, result in the creation of ribbon development along the
Branch Road and would therefore adversely affect the visual amenity and
character of the countryside.
The proposal is contrary to Policy CTY14 of, Draft Planning Policy Statement
21, Sustainable Development in the Countryside in that the building would, if
permitted result in a suburban style build-up of development when viewed with
existing and approved buildings and the building would, if permitted not
respect the traditional pattern of settlement exhibited in that area and the
building would, if permitted create or add to a ribbon of development and
would therefore result in a detrimental change to the rural character of the
countryside.

Sustainable Development in the Countryside, in that the proposed building

enclosure for the building to integrate into the landscape, and therefore would
not integrate into this area of the countryside.
