About this application
This is a planning application for window replacement at 93A - 93F Burscough Street Ormskirk Lancashire L39 2EL. West Lancashire has handled 2,971 applications of this type. This one was decided in 230 days, 25 weeks longer than West Lancashire's typical decision time. The site is in a conservation area, with 2 listed buildings nearby. There has been 1 other application at this address. In the past year there have been 55 applications across Ormskirk West Ward. We hold 507 applications in total for the L39 postcode area.
Why it was refused
- Insufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposed repair, refurbishment and replacement of windows and doors would preserve the special architectural and historic interest of the Grade II Listed Building. The Local Planning Authority is therefore unable to properly assess the impact of the proposals on the significance of the designated heritage asset and cannot conclude that the statutory duty to preserve the listed building has been satisfied. The proposal is therefore contrary to Sections 16(2) and 66(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, Chapter 20 of the National Planning Policy Framework, and Policies GN3 and EN4 of the West Lancashire Local Plan 2012-2027 DPD.
From the council's decision notice.
