Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building, Stables to Smeaton Manor, or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
What decided it
The harm to the significance of the listed building caused by the forward projection and visually dominant design of the extension, with large openings contrasting with the smaller windows of the original Webb design, was not outweighed by the limited public benefits and personal circumstances of the applicant.
