Why it was refused

  1. Based on the information available to the Local Planning Authority, the proposed development, by reason of its loss of historic fabric, harm to the historic plan of the house, covering of original features and addition of inappropriate window replacements will not preserve the special architectural or historic significance listed building, contrary to sections 16(2) and 66 of The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (as amended), policy CS5 of the North Somerset Core Strategy, policy DM4 of the North Somerset Sites and Policies Plan (Part 1) and section 16 of the National Planning Policy Framework. Insufficient information for the Local Planning Authority to understand the potential impact of the proposal on the significance of the listed building has been submitted and it has not been demonstrated the existing windows are beyond repair, that the walls need to be removed, the flags need to be covered or the stairs need to be built over.
  2. The removal of traditional fabric, including walls, beams and brick columns would result in unacceptable harm to the character, special architectural, historic interest, and significance of this Grade II Listed Building. This is contrary to sections 16(2) and 66 of The Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (as amended), policies CS5 and CS12 of the North Somerset Core Strategy, policies DM4 & DM32 of the North Somerset Sites and Policies Plan (Part 1) and section 16 of the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
