Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed works on the special architectural and historic interest of a) the Grade II listed building 'Barn 30 Metres North East of Canterbury Tye Hall Farmhouse', b) the Grade II curtilage listed barn buildings, and c) the setting of the Grade II listed building 'Canterbury Tye Hall Farmhouse'
  • The effect of the proposal on highway safety

What decided it

The lack of clear detail and justification regarding the extent and location of loss of stud and sole plate fabric in the listed barn meant the public benefits could not be demonstrated to outweigh the less than substantial harm to the heritage asset's significance.

The benefits of housing delivery and highway safety improvement were outweighed by the less than substantial harm to the significance of the Grade II listed barn, given the lack of certainty about the magnitude of heritage harm
