Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
What decided it
The loss of historic fabric and obscuring of the historic internal floor plan would fail to preserve the special architectural or historic interest of the Grade II listed building, and the limited public benefits did not outweigh this considerable harm.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy LP34
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 164Paragraph 207Paragraph 208
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
