- Boniface M
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
- The extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Easingwold Conservation Area
What decided it
The failure to demonstrate that the existing timber cannot be satisfactorily repaired, combined with the less than substantial but considerable harm to the listed building's special architectural features and conservation area character that would result from the modern appearance of the replacement windows, outweighs the private benefits of thermal efficiency and safety improvements.
