Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether varying a disputed condition would preserve a Grade II listed building known as Priors Mill or any features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
  • whether varying a disputed condition would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Kingsclere Conservation Area

What decided it

The new fenestration would remove the last evidence of how the eastern extension was built relative to the original cellar, causing irreversible harm to understanding the phased development of the listed building that outweighs the minor public benefits of the proposal.
