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 Earls Barton Conservation Area
  • The effect of the proposal on the character of the local landscape

What decided it

The harm to the special interest of the listed building and the significance of the conservation area caused by the introduction of incongruous modern hardstanding materials and loss of traditional enclosure and planting was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of reduced parking pressure and electric vehicle charging.
