Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building, Bargrove Farmhouse, or its setting

What decided it

The relatively modest nature and discreet location of the proposed works, combined with minimal loss of historic fabric and the use of matching materials, would preserve the Grade II listed building and its setting without harming the significance of the designated heritage asset.
