Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the significance of the Grade II listed building and its features of special architectural or historic interest, and whether the character or appearance of the Conservation Area would be preserved or enhanced
What decided it
The proposed replacement windows would fail to preserve the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and would not preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Conservation Area, and the limited public benefits did not justify this harm when weighed against the statutory duty to give great weight to conservation of designated heritage assets.
