Why it was refused

  1. The proposal fails to demonstrate that the existing windows are beyond repair and does not provide adequately accurate detailed drawings to confirm that the replacements would replicate the historic design and detailing of the windows. This would result in harm to the significance of the listed building, contrary to Local Plan Policies Q5, Q8, Q11, Q20 and Q22.

From the council's decision notice.
