Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the South Luffenham Conservation Area

What decided it

The harm to the significance of the listed building and conservation area from the loss of historic fabric and disruption of the distinctive plain stone walling could not be justified by the modest public benefits of improved natural light and economic investment.

Framework references: 207, 208

Plan policies cited: Policy CS22 of the Rutland Core Strategy Development Plan Document (adopted 2011), Policy SP20 of the Rutland Local Plan Site Allocations and Policies Development Plan Document (adopted 2014)
