Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building and any features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses; whether it would preserve the setting of Pickering Castle Scheduled Monument; and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of Pickering Conservation Area
The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of the residential occupants of No 25, with particular regard to outlook, noise and disturbance

What decided it

The proposal would fail to preserve the special historic interest of the Grade II listed building and the character and appearance of Pickering Conservation Area, with the harm to heritage assets outweighing any claimed public benefits, and would additionally harm neighbouring residential amenity.

Framework references: 205, 206, 207

Plan policies cited: SP12, SP20

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
