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, as well as the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area, bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of nearby listed buildings, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Scarborough Conservation Area
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 the Scarborough Conservation Area, with negligible public benefits insufficient to outweigh the less than substantial but considerable heritage harm.
