Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the fenestration and external door details submitted pursuant to condition No 3 (a) preserve the setting of the listed buildings known as The Old Palace and the Victorian Folly of Medieval Ruins (The Folly)

What decided it

The UPVC windows and doors installed on the mid-twentieth century buildings do not affect the way the listed buildings are appreciated because the appeal buildings are clearly of a different modern character that sits recessively in the site and does not compete with the historic mansion.

Plan policies cited: Policy D3, Policy HC1, Policy 4, Policy 37, Policy 38
