Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether proposed works would preserve Blounce Cottage, its setting, or any features of special architectural or historic interest it possesses
What decided it
The cumulative effect of the proposed orangeries would further erode the special interest and significance of the listed building by obscuring its historic form, disproportionately increasing modern floor area relative to historic fabric, and further enclosing the historic core, without clear and convincing public benefits to justify this harm.
