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 harm caused to the significance of the listed building by the visually obtrusive and domesticating extension was not outweighed by any identifiable public benefits, as the accessibility needs could be met through alternative means.

The less than substantial harm to the special interest and significance of the listed building was not outweighed by public benefits, as the claimed accessibility benefit was not clearly necessary and any other benefits were private or negligible.

Framework references: 202

Plan policies cited: Policy EN5 of the Teignbridge Local Plan 2013-33
