Why it was refused
- The retention of the external extraction flue results in harm to the architectural and historic significance of the Grade II Listed Stratford House and fails to preserve its special interest. The flue introduces an incongruous modern feature that detracts from the listed buildings historic fabric, form and setting. The impact of the works has resulted in harm to the significance of the listed building. As such the proposed works are contrary to the aims and intentions of policies P10 and P11 of the Core Strategy, saved UDP policies GP5, N14 and N17, and advice contained within the National Planning Policy Framework. Notably in relation to the latter whilst the harm to the listed building as a whole is identified to be 'less than substantial' in the context of relevant guidance, no public benefits exist which clearly outweigh the harm identified.

From the council's decision notice.
