Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would preserve the setting of a Grade II listed building Crawford House
What decided it
The extensive granite driveway with its contemporary design and colour jars with the listed building and, in combination with the gate piers and parking posts, visually competes with and detracts from the views of Crawford House, causing less than substantial but considerable harm to its special interest that cannot be justified by the limited public benefits.
