Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether it has been demonstrated that the proposed building operations would be reasonably necessary to convert the building to residential use under Schedule 2, Part 3, Class Q of the GPDO
- Whether the proposal would be acceptable with respect to design and external appearance, with specific regard to the setting of the grade II listed Waldley Manor Farmhouse and adjacent barn, and whether condition Q.2.(1)(f) has been met
What decided it
The harm to the significance of the grade II listed buildings through the incongruous design and domesticated appearance of the proposed development, which was not outweighed by the modest public benefits.
