Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the setting of the listed buildings would be preserved and whether or not the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Snainton Conservation Area
- The effect on the open countryside
- The effect on the living conditions of local residents
What decided it
The heritage harm to the setting of the listed building and conservation area, combined with harm to the countryside character and living conditions of neighbours, was not outweighed by the limited economic benefits of the proposal.
The identified but limited benefits to the proposal do not clearly outweigh the totality of harm arising from heritage impact, countryside erosion, and living conditions harm.
