Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by virtue its design and materials would result in less than substantial harm to the Grade II listed building and the character and appearance of the Newton-on-the-Moor Conservation Area. This harm would not be outweighed by the public benefit derived from the development. The proposal would not be in accordance with Policies ENV 7 and ENV 9 of the Northumberland Local Plan and the paragraphs 213 and 215 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

From the council's decision notice.
