Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Knaresborough Conservation Area including its effect on the significance of the host property as a non-designated heritage asset

What decided it

The less than substantial harm caused to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the significance of the non-designated heritage asset was not outweighed by the public benefits of the proposal, as the appellant failed to demonstrate that the building could not be viably used in its current form.
