Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development and works on the Grade II listed building and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses, and the extent to which the character or appearance of the Conservation Area would be preserved or enhanced

What decided it

The harm to the significance of the listed building and conservation area caused by the proposals, which constituted less than substantial harm but was not justified by clear and convincing justification or sufficient public benefits to outweigh the great weight given to conservation.

Framework references: 205, 206, 208

Plan policies cited: SWDP6, SWDP21, SWDP24
