Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building, Earls Terrace, and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses.

What decided it

The works restore the internal layout to an earlier historic phase of the building's evolution, thereby enhancing the legibility and special architectural interest of the Grade II listed building, which outweighs the loss of the post-1995 compartmentalisation narrative.
