Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character or appearance of the Winsley Conservation Area and on the setting of nearby listed buildings

What decided it

The development caused less than substantial harm to the heritage assets with no public benefits to outweigh that harm, and therefore failed to comply with national policy and the statutory duty to preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting of the listed building.

Less than substantial harm to the conservation area and the setting of the listed building was weighed against no public benefits, resulting in dismissal of the appeals.
