Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the special architectural and historic interest of The Elms (the Grade II listed building of which Brewhouse Barn forms part)
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the special architectural and historic interest of the Grade II listed building The Elms, caused by the incongruous and cluttering effect of the proposed steel structure on Brewhouse Barn's preserved functional character, outweighs the accessibility benefits to the occupants when weighed in the balance under Paragraph 202 of the NPPF and the strong presumption against harm under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.
