Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the works would preserve the special architectural or historic interest of this Grade II listed building and whether they would cause any harm to its significance as a designated heritage asset
What decided it
The works would not harm the designated heritage asset because the bay window is already markedly different in character from the other windows on the elevation, and replacing only the glass with appropriate detailing would not make it appear more discordant.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CS14Policy SADM29Policy SADM30
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.
