Across Cotswold: what refusals were about
Of the 66 refusals whose decision notices we read, the share that gave a reason about each.
- Heritage assets 56% That the work does no harm to the character or appearance of a conservation area, or to a listed building, its setting or what makes it special. The council gives that great weight, and any harm needs clear justification.
- Design and character of the area 39% That the work suits the house and the street: its size, its shape, its roof and its materials.
- Insufficient information 36% Drawings and details enough to judge the work: what the council's own list of requirements asks for, and anything its policies need shown.
Cotswold as a whole granted a comparable share across 2,105 decisions. See the whole council.
