Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposals would preserve a Grade II listed building, known as 'The Toll House', and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest it possesses
- The extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Lindfield Conservation Area
What decided it
The size, form and design of the proposed rear extension would unacceptably dominate the rear elevation and compromise the historic and architectural integrity of the listed building, and the public benefits did not outweigh this harm.
