Why it was refused
- In the opinion of the Local Planning Authority, the proposed works as submitted would result in less-than substantial harm to this Grade II Listed Building, and the historic character and appearance of the Kingston Lisle Conservation Area. No Heritage Impact Assessment has been submitted to inform the proposals, and no public benefit has been demonstrated to outweigh the harm identified by the Local Planning Authority. The proposal fails to preserve or enhance the historic significance, interest and setting of the identified Heritage Assets. The proposed development is contrary to Policies CP37 and CP39 of the Local Plan 2031 Part 1, Development Policies DP36, DP37 and DP38 of the Local Plan 2031, Part 2, the provisions of sections 16, 66 an d 72 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 and paragraphs 202, 207, 212, 2013, and 215 of the National Planning Policy Framework.
- In the opinion of the Local Planning Authority, insufficient ecological information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposed external works would not result in the loss, deterioration or harm to habitats, or species of importance to biodiversity, previously identified to be using the Listed building. In the interests of the conservation and enhancement of biodiversity within the District, with particular regard to bats, this proposed development is considered contrary to Policy CP46 of the Local Plan 2031, Part 1, paragraphs 187 and 193 of the National Planning Policy Framework, and the provisions of the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 (as amended) and the ODPM Circular 06/2005 (Biodiversity and Geological Conservation, Part IV, paras. 98 and 99).
From the council's decision notice.
