Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposals would preserve the Grade II listed building, Barn at Palace Farm, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
- Whether the proposals would preserve the setting of the Grade II listed buildings Palace Farmhouse and Pigeoncote at Palace Farm
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Witham on the Hill Conservation Area
What decided it
The harm to the special interest and significance of the listed building and the settings of adjacent listed buildings, assessed as less than substantial but of considerable importance, was not outweighed by the private benefits of improved residential accommodation.
