Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building known as Manor House, or any features of special architectural and historic interest which it possesses
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Burton Conservation Area
What decided it
The cumulative effects of the extension's design, size, scale, form and materials would fail to preserve the Grade II listed building and would not preserve or enhance the conservation area's character and appearance, and the identified public benefits were insufficient to outweigh this considerable harm.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy S57 of the Central Lincolnshire Local Plan
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 195Paragraph 205Paragraph 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.
