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 irreversible loss of historic fabric and the obscuring of the historic internal plan form and layout, which contribute to the building's special interest, could not be justified by the limited public benefits of the proposal, which were primarily of private rather than public benefit.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- LP1LP3
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 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.
