Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed works would preserve the Grade II listed building, The Grange and adjoining boundary wall and stable, and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
What decided it
The proposed porch would be an unsympathetic and over-dominant addition that would impair the listed building's historic legibility and fail to preserve its special interest, and the limited public benefits arising from improved accessibility could not outweigh this harm.
What the Inspector cited
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 199Paragraph 200Paragraph 202Paragraph 197
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.
