Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the works would preserve the Grade II listed building – 20-26 Thomas Street or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
What decided it
The harm to the special interest of the listed building caused by the loss of historic fabric and erosion of the cellular plan form and symmetry, which would not be outweighed by the private and minimal public benefits of the proposal.
