Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether any adverse impacts of the proposals upon the significance of the Tamerton Foliot Conservation Area, the Grade II* listed Church of St. Mary or the non-designated heritage assets known as Cann House and Cann Lodge would be outweighed by the public benefits
What decided it
The less than substantial but significant harm to the significance of the Conservation Area and Grade II* listed Church, and the considerable harm to the non-designated heritage assets, were not outweighed by the moderate public benefits of the proposal.
the less than substantial harm to the designated heritage assets (Conservation Area and listed Church) and considerable harm to non-designated heritage assets (Cann House and Cann Lodge) were weighed against moderate public benefits including housing supply, construction industry support, public access, landscape planting and biodiversity enhancement; the balance tipped firmly against approval
