Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal, with particular regard to the proposed rear extension, would preserve a Grade II listed building 'Rye House' and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
What decided it
The proposal would fail to preserve the special interest of the Grade II listed building by eroding its historic character and legibility as a traditional long house, and the public benefits were insufficient to outweigh this less than substantial harm, especially given the availability of a fallback scheme providing substantial private benefits.
