Why it was refused

  1. The application fails to provide the clear and convincing justification under policy HE5 of the NPPF for the harm and losses that would occur as a result of the total loss of the 2.no curtilage listed barns through failing to robustly evidence that demolition is the only viable route. The application fails to demonstrate any substantial public benefits that outweigh this identified harm or that the criteria under policy HE5 are met. In accordance with policy HE4 of the NPPF the condition of the buildings cannot be taken into account where there is evidence of deliberate neglect and on the basis of the evidence available, despite some historical propping to 'Barn B' the deterioration of the buildings has taken place over a period in excess of 20 years with no evidence of any routine maintenance works or attempts by the applicants to further secure the buildings during this time period. The demolition of the barns would result in the total loss of the curtilage listed structures as well as harm to the significance and therefore the proposals fail to meet to the criteria outlined in policies HE5 and HE6 of the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
