Why it was refused

  1. The proposed windows, by virtue of their materials, design and construction do not preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Brookvale West Conservation Area and are therefore contrary to Section 72 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, Policy EM11 of the Basingstoke and Deane Local Plan 2011 - 2029 and the guidance contained within the Design and Sustainability SPD and Heritage SPD (2019)

From the council's decision notice.
