Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, the setting of the non-designated heritage asset at No 2 High Street and the setting of the Grade II Listed building at No 4 High Street
What decided it
The proposed dwelling's substantial scale, prominent design features and stark render would cause less-than-substantial harm to the setting and significance of the Grade II Listed building 'The Limes' and harm to the non-designated heritage asset 'The Hoops', which outweighs the modest public benefits of providing an additional dwelling.

- Policy NH/14Policy HQ/1
- National Planning Policy Framework
