Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed works would preserve a Grade II listed building
What decided it
The proposed door design would not preserve the Grade II listed building as it would be an alien insertion that fails to relate appropriately to the extension and other heritage features, and any public benefits from improved thermal performance would be negligible.
