Why it was refused

  1. The proposed development, by reason of its design and form, would not preserve the character, appearance and setting of the Grade II listed building (18 Park Street). The proposal is considered to amount to less than substantial harm to the significance of the identified heritage asset, which is not outweighed by any public benefits arising from the proposed development. The proposal is therefore contrary to Section 16(2) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (amended), policies OS2, OS4, H6, EH10 and EH11 of the West Oxfordshire Local Plan 2031, the West Oxfordshire Design Guide and the relevant provisions of the NPPF.

From the council's decision notice.
