Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the works have preserved a Grade II listed building known as Bothamsall Hall and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses

What decided it

The loss of the stone mullion windows as a strong and integrative architectural feature, combined with the incongruent BBQ canopy and biomass flue, caused less than substantial but considerable harm to the listed building's special interest that was not outweighed by the modest public benefits identified.
