Why it was refused

Reason
As stated on the decision notice
1
The flagpoles, by reason of their scale and siting would appear as dominant and incongruous features that would add visual clutter and would harm the setting of Senate House a Grade II* listed building and the Bloomsbury Conservation Area, contrary to policies D1 (Design) and D2 (Heritage), of the London Borough of Camden Local Plan 2017.
