Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the works carried out constitute unacceptable harm to the character of the listed building as a building of special architectural or historic interest
What decided it
The Inspector applied the test of whether alterations affected the character of the listed building as a building of special architectural or historic interest, allowing works that represented natural evolution or caused no material harm, but refusing those that lacked historic justification or caused less than substantial harm without compensating public benefits.
