Why it was refused
- The proposed rendering would result in an incongruous and stark addition, which would unsympathetically alter the appearance and character of Sparrows Roost, causing harm to its significance as a non-designated heritage asset. The use of render would also appear out of character within the site's wider context and would further result in harm to the setting and significance of Grade II listed Myrtle Cottage. No public benefits have been identified which would outweigh the harm to the heritage assets and as such, the proposal fails to accord with South Worcestershire Development Plan Review policies SWDPR 05, SWDPR 09, SWDPR 28 and SWDPR33 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review, along with National Decision-Making Policies HE5, HE6 and HE7.
From the council's decision notice.
