Why it was refused

  1. By virtue of the location of the proposed site within an area of identified parkland and green space, adjacent to the boundary of the Hanslope Conservation Area and within the setting of the Grade I Listed Church of St James the Great to the north and the Grade II Listed Manor House, sited to the west, it is considered that the proposal would result in less than substantial harm to the significance of these designated heritage assets, with limited public benefits to be derived from the proposal that could overcome this harm caused. The site was formerly the front garden of the Manor House and remains to be legible as such in its current form and the absence of structures on this land ensures the views of Manor House and the Church of St James are preserved. The proposed dwelling would result in a noticeable modern, harmful intrusion upon this setting, and the significant views of these heritage assets would be obscured from their respective angles from Manor Close which is not acceptable. The development would therefore be contrary to Policy HE1 of Plan:MK, the Hanslope Conservation Area Review, Section 16 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and associated Planning Practice Guidance (PPG).

From the council's decision notice.
