Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal upon the significance of the grade II listed building, known as 1–6 Albion Terrace and whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Bath Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposal upon the Bath World Heritage Site
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the listed building's special interest and the conservation area's character and appearance, combined with adverse impact on the World Heritage Site's outstanding universal values, outweighed the modest public benefits of the proposal.
The less than substantial harm to the listed building and conservation area, weighted with considerable importance and great weight in accordance with paragraph 199 of the Framework, was not outweighed by the modest public benefits of the proposal.
