Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building, Herod Farmhouse, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
- whether the proposal would accord with the housing strategy, specifically with regard to open market dwellings
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the occupiers of the existing dwelling at Herod Farm, with particular regard to privacy
- whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for future occupiers of the proposed dwelling, with particular regard to privacy
- the effect of the proposal on protected species
What decided it
The proposal would fail to preserve the Grade II listed building and would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to its special interest and significance, which could not be justified by the public benefits offered, particularly where the building's future viability was not at risk.
