Why it was refused

  1. The applicant has failed to provide sufficient information to support a justification for the replacement of existing windows WG1 and WG2. Their loss would result in harm to the special architectural and historic interest of the heritage asset. Whilst the harm is likely to be considered less than substantial in the context of the National Planning Policy Framework, there are no identified public benefits which would be capable of outweighing such harm. Therefore, the proposal conflicts with policies P10, P11 and P12 of the Core Strategy, Saved policies GP5, BD6, N14 and N17 of the UDPR, guidance contained within the Aberford Neighbourhood Plan and the NPPF in these respects.
