Why it was refused

  1. The proposed works present an incongruous addition to this listed building, that fails to respect, or make reference to, the historic purpose of the annex building and undermines the character and significance of the Grade II listed La Mancha, without any significant benefits which would outweigh this harm. As such, the proposal is contrary to the NPPF and Policies GN3 and EN4 of the Local Plan.

From the council's decision notice.
