Why it was refused

  1. The proposed works to Bank House would result in less than significant harm to the heritage asset, in terms of both character and loss of fabric. The harm identified is not outweighed by any identifiable public benefits or benefit to the continued viability of the heritage asset. The proposed works to the principle elevation would also result in demonstrable harm to the character of the Bodenham Conservation Area. Therefore the proposal is contrary to Policy LD4 of the Herefordshire Local Plan – Core Strategy, Policy BNDP 10 of the Bodenham Neighbourhood Development Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
