Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the existing property, surrounding area and the Thorney Hedge Conservation Area

What decided it

The private benefits of improved accommodation did not outweigh the less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and the host property.

The less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area as a designated heritage asset, to which great weight was attached, was not outweighed by private benefits which do not constitute public benefits.
