Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the proposed development, having regard to policies which seek to protect the countryside
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Hatfield High Street Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposal's scale and siting would represent an inappropriate intensification of commercial development in the countryside and would cause less than substantial harm to the conservation area's character that was not outweighed by the limited public benefits.
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of business growth and local economic contribution.
