Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the installation of 2 UPVC double glazed windows at first floor level of the rear elevation preserves the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building, whether it preserves or enhances the character or appearance of Cromer Conservation Area and whether the significance of the heritage assets is harmed
What decided it
The replacement UPVC windows fail to preserve the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and the character and appearance of the conservation area, and the public benefits do not provide clear and convincing justification for the less than substantial harm caused.
The less than substantial harm to the designated heritage assets was not outweighed by the public benefits of improved living conditions and energy efficiency, as these could be achieved through alternative means that would avoid the identified harm
