Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the fencing preserves the character or appearance of the Old Bursledon Conservation Area
What decided it
The fencing causes less than substantial harm to the significance of the conservation area with only private benefits and no public benefits, and the Framework requires great weight to be given to conservation of the designated heritage asset.
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the designated heritage asset outweighed the private benefits of privacy and security, with no public benefits to justify the harm.
