Why it was refused
- 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.
