  • whether suitable living conditions would be provided for future occupants of the proposed development, with regard to the provision of internal space
  • whether the proposed development would deliver biodiversity net gain

What decided it

The failure to satisfactorily demonstrate that the proposal would preserve the special architectural or historic interest of the adjacent Grade II listed building, combined with inadequate living conditions for future occupants.
