Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the significance of the listed building
  • The character and appearance of the area and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Farnham Town Centre Conservation Area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of Pipistrel Cottage with regard to outlook

What decided it

The harm to the significance of the listed building, which the Inspector assessed as less than substantial but to which great weight must be given under paragraph 199 of the Framework, was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of providing a single dwelling.
