Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the significance of the grade II listed building known as 9-19 Eastgate Street

What decided it

The public benefits of the proposal, which are limited to private improvements in basement usability and incomplete proposals for window reinstatement, are insufficient to outweigh the moderate level of less than substantial harm to the significance of the listed building caused by loss of original fabric and alteration to the historic floor plan.
