Summary

Listed building consent for the works to convert the Grade II listed Cross Gaits Inn to a house, decided after a hearing in the same letter as the planning appeal (PINS-6007704). The inspector found limited harm, mainly from losing the historic pub use, gave it considerable importance and weight, and found it outweighed under HE6(4) by securing the long-term conservation of a vacant listed building and removing unsympathetic extensions. Allowed with six conditions.
