Why it was refused

  1. The Local Planning Authority considers that the alterations of the existing boundary treatment would interrupts a boundary feature which is shared with the neighbour and that positively contributes to its character and relationship to the street scene. Furthermore, the loss of vegetation and installation of the new gates, by reason of their height, scale, design, material and prominent location would appear as unsympathetic and incongruous additions that would have a detrimental visual impact on the character of the host dwelling and wider street scene. The proposed development fails to preserve, retain or conserve the character of the Roundhay Conservation Area and thereby resulting in harm to its significance. There are no public benefits arising from the development that would outweigh this identified harm, nor has clear and convincing justification been provided for such harm. Consequently, the proposal is contrary to Core Strategy Policies P10, P11 and P12 of the Core Strategy, saved policies GP5, BD6, BC7, N18, N19, N20 and N25 of the UDP, policy HDG1 and the guidance within the Householder Design guide SPD, the guidance contained within the Roundhay Merrion House 110 Merrion Centre Leeds LS2 8BB Town and Country Planning Act 1990 Conservation Area Appraisal, and NPPF NDMPs DP3, HE4, HE6, HE9 and N2(1d), alongside the heritage objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
