In this case (Grantley Hall), I think that there might be more to it than meets the eye.
After having a quick look at the planning application, GH had applied for 1000 helicopter movements per year, with up to 28 in one day. This application wasn't refused, it was withdrawn.
Therefore, presuming that another application hasn't been approved since 2018, then maybe they have to limit their movements to 28 days a year. Maybe the management of GH are using the high landing fee of £150 to try to manage that number?
