Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the development on the character and appearance of the area, including its effect on heritage assets
  • The effects of the development on the living conditions of adjacent occupants

What decided it

The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area and heritage setting, combined with unacceptable harm to the living conditions of adjacent occupants through loss of daylight and overbearing impact, outweighed the economic and tourism benefits.

Plan policies cited: Policy DM3, Policy DM9, Policy DM2, Policy 1 of the Joint Core Strategy, Policy 2 of the Joint Core Strategy
