Why it was refused

  1. Insufficient information has been submitted by the applicant to demonstrate that the proposals would not have a negative impact on the special interest of the Listed Building. Therefore, the application would conflict with Policies HA1 and HA7 of the EHDP 2018, The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, and the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
