Why it was refused

  1. The replacement windows, by virtue of their material, design and form, harm the character and appearance of the building and the contribution the building makes to the Conservation Area in this prominent position. Furthermore, there is no identified public benefit to outweigh the resulting harm and the proposal is therefore contrary to the aims of Strategic Policy 11 of the East Lindsey Local Plan and the guidance contained within Section 16 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
