Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve a Grade II listed building, known as 'Port Hall and attached walls', and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses

What decided it

The proposal would fail to preserve the special interest of the Grade II listed building, with the identified harm to the designated heritage asset not outweighed by limited public benefits, contrary to paragraph 208 of the NPPF and the requirements of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990.
