Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building, Holland Fold Farmhouse and attached barn, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses

What decided it

The proposals would fail to preserve the Grade II listed building's special architectural and historic interest, contrary to the statutory duty under sections 16(2) and 66(1) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, and the public benefits did not outweigh the harm caused.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
BNE1BNE8policy 16 of the Central Lancashire Core Strategy
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 195Paragraph 205Paragraph 206Paragraph 208
