Refusal reasons and planning conditions extracted from the public decision file.

Refusal reasons

Protected Structure

The retained decorative works create a visual contrast that materially affects the character and appearance of the Protected Structure, detracting from its special architectural interest and uniform neo-classical design aesthetic.

Policy AR1 and Section 8.2.11.2(i) of the Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Development Plan 2016-2022; Architectural Heritage Protection Guidelines for Planning Authorities
would have a material effect on the character and appearance of the protected structure, by creating a visual contrast which impacts on the neo-classical design aesthetic of the Victorian building, and would thereby detract from special interest of the building.
