Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the local area bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of the nearby Grade II listed buildings, the former Methodist Chapel and The Newgate, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Chester City Conservation Area
- Whether the time for compliance with the requirements of the notice falls short of what should reasonably be allowed
What decided it
The less than substantial but considerable harm to the setting of the Grade II listed former Methodist Chapel and the character and appearance of the Chester City Conservation Area outweighs the moderate economic and employment benefits claimed.
The harm to designated heritage assets, given considerable weight, outweighs the moderate weight given to employment creation and economic benefits, resulting in dismissal of the appeal.
