About this application
This is a planning application at Mount Cottage South Street Great Chesterford Saffron Walden Essex CB10 1NW. Uttlesford has handled 6,751 applications of this type. This one was decided in 16 days, 5 weeks quicker than Uttlesford's typical decision time. The site is in the Great Chesterford conservation area, with 11 listed buildings nearby. There has been 1 other application at this address. We hold 1,334 applications in total for the CB10 postcode area.
Why it was refused
- The application (due to the works being beyond like-for-like repair and maintenance, and as insufficient detail has been provided to assess their impact on the significance of the heritage asset) has failed to demonstrate that the proposed works would preserve the special architectural or historic interest of the listed building and therefore fails to meet the requirements of Sections 26H and 26I of the Planning (Listed Building and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, as inserted by Section 61 of the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 and the Planning (Listed Buildings) (Certificate of Lawfulness of Proposed Works) Regulations 2014 (as amended).
From the council's decision notice.
