Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the works would preserve a Grade II listed building, its setting, or any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
What decided it
The application failed to provide clear and convincing justification for the loss of the shed's significance as required by paragraph 200 of the Framework, and the claimed public benefits did not outweigh the less than substantial harm to the listed building and conservation area.
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the listed building and conservation area was not outweighed by the public benefits advanced, which were either unsubstantiated or negligible.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy NBE8 of the Hart Local Plan 2032Policy NW5 of the Hartley Wintney Neighbourhood Plan
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 200Paragraph 202
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
