Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
- The extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Tickhill Conservation Area
What decided it
The harm to the special architectural and historic interest of the Grade II listed building, assessed as less than substantial but of considerable importance, was not outweighed by the public benefits of renewable energy generation, particularly given the availability of alternative locations on the substantial dwelling and generous plot.
