Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the unauthorised works to the listed building have affected its special architectural or historic interest and whether listed building consent should be granted or refused for retention of those works
What decided it
Whether the unauthorised works resulted in loss of significance to the listed building's special architectural or historic interest, assessed on an allegation-by-allegation basis with consideration of reversibility and the purpose of listed building control.
The main issues and the deciding factor are read from the published letter by Town Planner Pro; the letter itself is the record. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Research, not advice.
