Planning permission has been refused to works already undertaken on Grade II listed building.
The bid was submitted by Mr and Mrs Fitchett of Dry Hill House, Crockerton who had already placed the upper windows of the shopfront at 3 Market Place, Warminster.
And in applying for retrospective planning permission, the couple’s bid has been rejected due to the harm caused by the works.
Wiltshire Council planning officers said: “The removal of the historic timber box sash windows and their replacement with PVCu windows of a different design, is considered to harm the special interest of the listed building.”
The plans also included plans to replace the current shopfront.
