Why it was refused
- The proposed development has been submitted without a Heritage Statement and would, by reason of it scale, poor design and materials, have a detrimental impact upon a significant Unlisted Building within the Northwold Conservation Area and upon the character and appearance of the Conservation Area itself and would thereby conflict with Policies LP18, LP20 and LP21 of the Local Plan and paragraph 207 of the NPPF.
From the council's decision notice.
