In pursuance of powers granted under the above Act and Order the Department of Local Government and the Environment does hereby REFUSE the following application made on behalf of:
Name: Mr R Corkill Proposal: Alterations to redundant farm building to form agricultural storage building at: Baldromma Mooar Maughold Isle Of Man
which was considered on 23rd August 2007, for the reasons set out below.
Date of Issue: 30th August 2007

Reasons For Refusal:

- By reason of its size and position the proposed building would adversely affect the setting of Maughold Cross House and its setting within the Conservation Area.
This decision was made by the Director of Planning and Building control in accordance with the authority delegated to him under Article 3(13) of the Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
