Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed works would preserve the special interest and significance of a Grade II listed building or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses, and whether its significance as a heritage asset is preserved

What decided it

The proposed colour would harm the building's special interest and significance and erode the visual unity of the listed terrace group, with insufficient public benefit to justify the moderate less than substantial harm to the Grade II listed building.

Framework references: 212, 213

Plan policies cited: Policy CP24 of the Tonbridge and Malling Core Strategy (2007), Policy SQ1 of the Tonbridge and Malling Development Plan Document (2010)
