Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wittersham Conservation Area
What decided it
The moderate less than substantial harm to the listed building's special architectural and historic interest, particularly the loss of historic fabric and disruption to the historic layout and proportions of the principal rooms, could not be justified by the limited public benefits advanced by the appellant.
