Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal 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 proposal would fail to preserve the special historic and architectural interest of the Grade II listed building through the overly large scale, discordant design and materials of the extension and dormer, which would not be justified by the private benefits to the appellants or limited public benefits.
