Why it was refused

  1. By virtue of the cumulative impact of design, appearance and scale upon the (listed) host dwelling and loss of the historic fabric and understanding of the dwelling and its associated outbuilding, the proposed works are considered to be a disproportionate and unsymapthetic addition contrary to Policies DP4 and CP52 of the Uttlesford District Local Plan 2021-2041 as Adopted and the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
