Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- effect of the proposal on the setting of the Grade II listed former public house known as the Rose and Crown
- living conditions of future occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance from the adjacent highway
- whether the development would secure appropriate contributions towards infrastructure provision
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the setting of the listed building, when weighed against the limited public benefits of a single dwelling, was insufficient to outweigh the great weight the Framework requires to be given to the conservation of heritage assets.
The less than substantial harm to the setting of the listed building outweighed the limited benefits of housing delivery and site tidying, particularly given the great weight required by the Framework for heritage conservation.
