Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the uPVC windows and doors subject of the notice preserve the listed building or any features of special architectural and historic interest that it possesses
What decided it
The replacement UPVC windows and doors fail to preserve the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building, and the public benefits advanced do not outweigh the harm caused.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy D3 of the Guildford Borough Local Plan: Strategy and Sites (2019)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 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.
