Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the appeal proposal upon the setting of the locally listed building and whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Wray Common Conservation Area
What decided it
The revised parking arrangement would create a car-dominated environment giving rise to harm to the setting of the locally listed building and less than substantial harm to the conservation area, with no public benefits to outweigh this harm.
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area and harm to the setting of the locally listed building was not outweighed by any public benefits, contrary to the National Planning Policy Framework
