Recommendation Refusal
For the following reasons:
1. The re-roofing in reconstituted slates has introduced a modern material
which has a manufactured mechanical appearance failing to exhibit the
subtle irregularities in shape, colour, texture and thickness of the original
natural slate. The reconstructed slates are therefore unsympathetic to
the historic construction thus harming the character and appearance of
the Listed Building.
2. The relocation of the staircase and the subdivision of the front of the barn
has unacceptably divided the single volume of the barn thereby causing
harm to the character of the Listed Building.
3. The external joinery items by virtue of their finish in a modern stain cause
harm to the character of the Listed Building.
4. The stainless steel flue installed on the barn roof has introduced a feature
alien to the agricultural nature of the building to the detriment of its
character.
