Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the works would preserve the Grade II* listed building known as Numbers 105-111 (Odd) Frognal Grove including former stable range, or any features of special architectural and/or historic character that they possess
What decided it
The irreversible destruction or concealment of historic cellar fabric that contributed to understanding the building's significance, combined with the availability of less intrusive stabilisation methods, meant the private benefits of the basement works could not outweigh the less than substantial harm to the listed building.
