AUSTIN Molloy has been refused planning permission to build a property with a detached garage on land at Hall Moss Quarry, Brookside Farm, Darwen.
Mr Molloy submitted the proposal to Blackburn with Darwen Council but planners refused it under delegated powers. They said the dwelling would result in the ‘urbanisation of a countryside location which would have a detrimental impact on the landscape character’.
They added that ‘insufficient information’ had been submitted to ‘enable an informed assessment of the application’.
