Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the works on the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the listed building's special architectural and historic interest and the conservation area's character, when weighed against the public benefit of thermal efficiency which could be achieved through alternative means, does not justify consent under paragraph 202 of the NPPF and the statutory presumption against harm in sections 16(2) and 72(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.
What the Inspector cited
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 199Paragraph 202
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.
