Why it was refused
- The proposed alterations to the window openings on the rear elevation would in the opinion of the Local Planning Authority, fail to enhance or preserve the character and appearance of Stainland Conservation Area in which the site is located and, as such, would be contrary to Policy HE1 (Historic Environment) of the Calderdale Local Plan through the loss of the pattern of historic window openings and the incongruous nature of the large expanses of glass, the glazed balcony and the top- opening design of the windows themselves.
- The proposed development a combination of wide second floor windows, a vertical french door and balcony alongside smaller windows would be unsympathetic and incongruous in the streetscene in the context of the design of neighbouring properties and to the end terraced Victorian property itself which is elevated and particularly prominent in the streetscape and visible from many public viewing points and public footpaths. It would thus be contrary to policy BT1 (High Quality Inclusive Design) and GN4 (Landscape) of the Calderdale Local Plan
From the council's decision notice.
