Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the locally listed school building and surrounding area, including whether it would preserve its special interest
What decided it
The proposed replacement windows, being a like-for-like match in overall arrangement, format, design and scale, would not unacceptably harm the character and appearance of the locally listed building or preserve its special interest, particularly when balanced against the practical necessity of replacement due to poor condition and health and safety concerns in an operating school.
