Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the grade II listed building and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
  • The effect on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The insertion of an additional window opening above the front door would seriously disrupt the uniformity of the terrace and cause less than substantial harm to the listed building's special interest, which could not be justified by the public benefits of providing an additional bedroom.
