Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the windows would preserve listed buildings and their settings and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest they possess, and linked to that whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the conservation area
What decided it
The double-glazed windows would harmfully disrupt the cohesive, polite mannered appearance of the neo-classical listed buildings and detract from the historic character of the conservation area, with public benefits insufficient to outweigh this harm.
