Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed works on the Grade II listed buildings, Numbers 1, 2 and 3 and Moorgate Farmhouse and adjoining barn and shippon, School Lane and the Stable Wing adjoining the north east of Moorgate House
What decided it
The proposed replacement garage would introduce unsympathetic and incongruous modern development within the settings of the listed buildings that would fail to preserve their rural character and significance, with no public benefits to justify the harm.
