Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal, with particular regard to the gable end wall of the replacement 2-storey structure and the external stairs feature, would preserve a Grade II listed building and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses.

What decided it

The extensively glazed gable end would be visually obtrusive and incongruous with the traditional architectural character of the listed building, and the public benefits of the proposal were insufficient to outweigh the less than substantial harm to the building's special interest.
