Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building, 'The Cottages', and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses

What decided it

The proposal would fail to preserve the special historic interest of the Grade II listed building by removing the physical and visual separation between the dwelling and the garage building, creating an overwhelming modern structure that would erode the building's legibility as a modest detached rural dwelling, and the private benefits did not outweigh this less than substantial harm.
