The summerhouse and boundary fencing, by reason of their siting, height and dark colour, have an adverse and overbearing impact on the amenities of the occupiers of the adjacent dwellings. The development also results in an unduly obtrusive and dominant feature which results in a harmful urbanising impact and fortified appearance in this rural setting. As such the proposal would be contrary to the provisions of Core Policy A and Development Policy 19 of the Local Development Plan which require development to respect the character, special qualities and distinctiveness of the locality and not detract from the quality of life of local residents.
