Why it was refused

  1. The replacement windows and doors, roller shutter, canopy, boundary treatments, hardstanding and CCTV equipment, by reason of their design, appearance and cumulative impact, have resulted in the loss and alteration of historic fabric, caused harm to the architectural character, detailing and symmetry of the principal elevation, and eroded the setting and significance of Croft House, a Grade II listed building. The development has failed to preserve the special architectural and historic interest of the designated heritage asset and has resulted in a medium level of less than substantial Merrion House 110 Merrion Centre Leeds LS2 8BB Town and Country Planning Act 1990 harm which is not outweighed by public benefits. The proposal is therefore contrary to Section 66(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, Core Strategy Policies P10 and P11, saved UDP Policies GP5, BC7, BD6, N14, N17 and N25, and the heritage objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
