Why it was refused

  1. Refusal Reason 1 - Design, Visual Amenity and Heritage Setting Harm The development represents poor design which detracts from the character and appearance of the site and its surroundings. The development causes less-than- substantial harm to the setting of designated heritage assets. The development detracts from the user experience of the adjacent public right of way. The public benefits of the development do not outweigh the harm which has been identified. The development conflicts with Harborough Local Plan Policies GD8, HC1, BE1 and GI1, the Great Glen Neighbourhood Plan Policy GG6, and the NPPF.
  2. Refusal Reason 2 - Neighbouring Amenity Harm The application has not satisfactorily demonstrated that neighbouring amenities would be protected from significant harm. The development conflicts with Harborough Local Plan Policy GD8 (criterion e), the Great Glen Neighbourhood Plan Policies GG6 (criterion e) and GG8, and the NPPF. 26/00015/FUL - Alterations to the existing approved rear structure associated with the public house, including full enclosure and the installation of heating, lighting and controlled sound equipment, to allow its use as a multi-functional ancillary space, together with associated acoustic mitigation and operational management measures, 14 London Road, Great Glen, Leicestershire.

From the council's decision notice.
