Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed works would preserve the Grade II listed building or any features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses

What decided it

The proposed leaded light bronze casement windows and rear mullions would be historically inauthentic to the building's eighteenth century architecture and would erode the historic legibility of the listed building and character of the conservation area, with insufficient public benefits to outweigh this harm.

The modest benefits of durability, removal of recent casements, and replacement of damaged stonework were outweighed by the considerable harm to the special interest of the listed building and character and appearance of the conservation area caused by historically inauthentic window materials and design.
