Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Great Ayton Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed uPVC windows, even with traditional style features, would erode the special interest and significance of the listed building and conservation area through their incompatible synthetic material and inability to accurately replicate the existing windows' detailed design, which harm could not be sufficiently mitigated and outweighed the identified benefits.
