Why it was refused

  1. - The proposal, by reason it’s inappropriate and unsympathetic materials, would harm the special character of the locally listed terrace and the conservation area for which there are no outweighing benefits, contrary to policies D4 and HC1 of the London Plan (2021), policies S.DH1 and S.DH3 of the Tower Hamlets Local Plan (2020) and the York Square Conservation Area Management guidelines.

From the council's decision notice.
