Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposals would preserve the Grade II* listed Wiverton Hall including service range to rear left, the Grade II listed Paddock Cottage Stable Range north-north-west of Wiverton Hall, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which they possess, including settings, and the settings of the Moated Site and Fishponds, and the Civil War Gun Battery Scheduled Monuments
- The effect of the proposals on the living conditions of occupiers of other dwellings in Wiverton
- The effect of the proposals on highways safety
What decided it
The proposals would cause less than substantial harm to designated heritage assets and significant harm to neighbouring residential amenity that could not be outweighed by the modest and unsubstantiated public benefits claimed.
