Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the special interest of the Grade II listed building 1-23, College Cross, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Barnsbury Conservation Area

What decided it

The harm to the special interest and significance of the Grade II listed building through loss of historic fabric and disruption of historic plan form and circulation patterns was not outweighed by the moderate public benefits of the proposal, contrary to NPPF paragraph 202 and sections 16(2) and 66(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.

Framework references: 200, 201, 202
