Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect on designated heritage assets
- The living conditions of residents of 8 Sudbeck Lane with regards to privacy
What decided it
The proposal would fail to preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the conservation area and would not preserve the setting of the Listed Building, with no public benefits to outweigh the less than substantial harm to these designated heritage assets, and would additionally cause significant harm to the privacy of neighbouring residents.
The limited benefits of housing supply and mix from a single dwelling were outweighed by the less than substantial harm to designated heritage assets and significant harm to neighbouring living conditions, with no material considerations indicating the decision should be made other than in accordance with the development plan.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- LP2LP17LP25LP26EN5
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 130
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
