### Reasons For Refusal:

1. It is considered that insufficient justification has been submitted to warrant the removal of the two chimney stacks. As such, the removal of the chimneys would adversely affect the character of the building and that of the Conservation Area in which the site is located.

This decision was made by the Director of Planning and Building control in accordance with the authority delegated to him under Article 3(13) of the Town and Country (Development Procedure) Order 2005.
