Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would preserve the special architectural and historical interest of the Grade II listed Elm House

What decided it

The height, bulk and elaborate design of the orangery, including the roof lantern, would not be subservient to the single storey wing and would harm the significance of the listed building, and the private benefits of the scheme do not outweigh this less than substantial harm.

The less than substantial harm to the significance of the listed building was weighed against the public benefits of the proposal, which were found to be largely private; the balance did not favour the development.

Development plan policies: Policy 6Policy 21Policy 24Policy H5
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 199Paragraph 200Paragraph 202
