Wilmslow Green Room Theatre has been refused planning permission to build a first floor extension for the second time.
They submitted a second planning application (reference 13/3342M) to Cheshire East Council (CEC) to enable them to construct a dedicated rehearsal studio above the foyer to allow the cast to start rehearsals earlier, independently of the previous production.
Cheshire East Council initially refused to grant planning permission in May 2013 and have done so again this month, on the grounds that the proposed extension would be overbearing and reduce the extent of sunlight to the neighbouring property at 83, Chapel Lane.
A second application (reference 13/3344M) to erect a free-standing sign was also refused on the grounds that it would be out of character with the street-scene and detrimental to the general visual amenities of the area.
Wilmslow Green Room are currently appealing against the first refusal (reference 13/0860M) to build a first floor extension.
