- The effect of the scheme on designated heritage assets, and more specifically, whether the scheme would preserve a Grade II listed building, its setting and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses, and whether the scheme would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of Forder and Antony Passage Conservation Area
What decided it
The scheme would cause unacceptable harm to the significance of both the Grade II listed building and the Conservation Area by removing an important boundary wall and introducing parked vehicles that would obscure and detract from the heritage assets, with insufficient public benefits to justify this harm.
