Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The main issue is the effect of the proposal on the special interest of the Grade II listed building Corn Hall, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses, and the effect on the setting of the nearby listed buildings.
What decided it
The harm to the significance of Corn Hall and the settings of the nearby listed buildings was not outweighed by the public benefits put forward.
The less than substantial harm (at the upper end of that scale) to the listed buildings, carrying considerable importance and weight, was not outweighed by the public benefits, to which only limited or moderate weight was given.
