Reason:

The application states that the relocated ASHP is unlikely to be visible in the street scene but not that it won't be visible. There is no reason given why the ASHP needs to be moved from the rear garden, where it definitely won't be visible. if there isn't a compelling reason the ASHP should remain where it was originally sited in the rear garden.
