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 whether any harm would be caused to its significance

What decided it

The moderate less than substantial harm to the significance of the Grade II listed building caused by the inappropriate massing and design of the proposed extension could not be justified by the identified public benefits, which were of insufficient weight to outweigh the great weight required to be given to conservation of the heritage asset.
