Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the works relating to the re-roofing of the single storey part of the listed building would preserve the special architectural or historical interest of the listed building

What decided it

The use of modern grey concrete tiles introduces a distinctly modern addition that does not preserve the special architectural and historic features of the listed building, and alternative materials could achieve fire safety objectives in a more historically sympathetic manner.

Plan policies cited: CP37, CP39, DP36, DP38
