Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the landscape and setting of the Epping Forest

What decided it

The proposal would increase harm to the landscape setting of Epping Forest and fail to preserve the character and appearance of the Conservation Area and setting of the Scheduled Monument, with public benefits that do not clearly outweigh the less than substantial harm to heritage assets.
