®Planning appeal decision

Planning appeal 3266583 at Land on the Corner of Waterside and Bridge Street, Adj. Orchard View, Ryhall, PE9 4HH (Rutland County Council) was dismissed on 29 June 2021 by Inspector Thompson P, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: the extent to which the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Ryhall Conservation Area, and its effect on the setting of the Grade II listed building known as 'Bridge over River Gwash' and the significance of the Millhouse Inn public house, as a non-designated heritage asset.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the extent to which the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Ryhall Conservation Area, and its effect on the setting of the Grade II listed building known as 'Bridge over River Gwash' and the significance of the Millhouse Inn public house, as a non-designated heritage asset
- whether the proposed development would conform to local policies and national guidance with regard to archaeology
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Grade II listed bridge and the Ryhall Conservation Area, and harm to the non-designated Millhouse Inn public house, outweighed the limited public benefit of a single dwelling, and the absence of adequate archaeological assessment rendered the proposal contrary to heritage policy.
the modest housing benefit was afforded limited weight and did not justify the less than substantial harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets (the listed bridge and conservation area), to which great weight must be given
