Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the works on the special architectural or historic interest of the listed building
What decided it
The irregular roof form, inappropriate materials (plastic skylight, uPVC double glazing, absence of render finish), and overall design of the extension harmfully detract from the listed building's special architectural and historic interest, and the private benefits to the occupiers do not outweigh this harm.
