Planning authority raised concerns over 'unacceptable and adverse impacts' on area
Plans to demolish a disused property and build 10 new industrial units in Crosby have been refused.
The application had sought to demolish the existing structure on the former Crosby Wholesalers site and build new facilities for use as light industry or storage and distribution.
The planning application had sought to build the units in four separate blocks.
However, planners found the increased number of units would be an inappropriate intensification of the site, resulting in unacceptable and adverse impacts in local character.
The decision notice also states some of the units would have been significantly closer to the main road, increasing the visibility of the site and eroding the semi-rural character of the area.
