- Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses

The lack of detailed supporting information to demonstrate that the removal works would not cause irreversible harm to the stonework and the special interest of the Grade II listed building, combined with Historic England guidance that such removal may cause more damage than retention.
