Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed works would preserve the Grade II listed building of Tayes Barn or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses

What decided it

The proposed aluminium glazing and doors would fail to preserve the character and appearance of the Grade II listed building and would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to its significance, which cannot be justified by the modest public benefits that could equally be achieved through more sensitive alternative proposals.

Framework references: 199, 200, 201, 202
