Application progress
Refused on 6 Feb 2026 · Committee Decision · Last checked 10 Oct 2026
Planning committee
Decided by Sefton Planning Committee on 4 Feb 2026.
Refused
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised refusal because the canopy harms the listed building and conservation area, with no public benefits outweighing that harm.
- The conservation officer objected, and one neighbour said the canopy damaged the historic building and should be removed.
- The committee approved the recommendation and refused both applications for the stated reasons.
