Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed access would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Eaton Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed access on the setting of the grade II listed Village Cross
- The effect of the proposed access on highway safety
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area and listed building setting, combined with the unacceptable highway safety impact, was not outweighed by the provision of housing or other public benefits.
