Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses, and preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Maidford Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal would fail to preserve the Grade II listed building and its special architectural and historic interest, and would not preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Maidford Conservation Area, with the identified harm not being outweighed by the minor public benefits.
