Why it was refused

  1. The proposed detailing of Window 3 and Window 4 and their related appearance, detailing and materials, including 'stuck on' glazing bar details would result in harm to the appearance and character of the listed building and fail to preserve the character and significance of the surrounding conservation area. This would represent less than substantial harm to the conservation area and the setting of the Grade II listed building as designated heritage assets and it is not found that public benefits attributed to the proposal would outweigh this harm. The proposed 'stuck on' glazing bars are considered inappropriate and would not be respectful of the listed building's traditional construction detailing. The application is subsequently contrary to Section 16(2) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (as amended); Core Strategy (2011) Policies BCS22, Site Allocations and Development Management Policies (2014) DM31 of the Local Plan and objectives contained within Chapter 16 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
