Guildford Cathedral refused building permission due to 'long distance' views

大象传媒 Surrey has discovered new details about why Guildford Cathedral was refused permission for 134 homes despite warnings it will probably close.
A letter from planners lists eight reasons. One says the financial circumstances do not outweigh the "significantly important" long-distance views of the site.
The development is described as too high, too big and too dense.
There are also concerns about rare birds, more dog walking, a loss of open space and less privacy for existing residents.
