Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building known as Tangmere House and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses
Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Tangmere Conservation Area

What decided it

The failure to demonstrate that the extent of works, particularly the removal of the upper section of timber and glazing in better condition, would cause the least possible loss of historic fabric, combined with insufficient specialist evidence to justify the proposal, meant the public benefits did not outweigh the harm to the listed building.

Framework references: 207, 210

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.
