Why it was refused
- The proposed development is considered to adversely impact the historic character and appearance of the Grade II Listed Building, to the detriment of the character of the Martock Conservation Area, contrary to Policies EQ2 and EQ3 of the South Somerset Local Plan 2006-28, Policies No. Mart1, Mart9 and Mart11 of the Martock Parish Neighbourhood Plan 2018-2028 and the provisions of the National Planning Policy Framework.
From the council's decision notice.
