Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would i) preserve a Grade II listed building, or its setting, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses, and ii) preserve or enhance the setting of the Eastcote Park Estate Conservation Area
- Whether the proposal would make adequate provision for car parking
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to trees
What decided it
The proposal would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to the significance of the Grade II listed building and the setting of the Eastcote Park Estate Conservation Area through the introduction of a discordant modern pergola and expansion of hardstanding, which would not be outweighed by the moderate public benefits claimed.
