Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building known as the Narborough Arms and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses, and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Narborough Conservation Area
- Whether the proposal would be acceptable with regard to highway safety
What decided it
The public benefit of improved accessibility, assessed as moderate weight, was insufficient to outweigh the less than substantial harm to the listed building and conservation area, which must be given great weight, particularly given that less harmful alternative access solutions had not been adequately ruled out.
