Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the scheme would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Burton St Leonards Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposal on the setting of 9-12 Maze Hill, 13 Maze Hill and 1-4 Maze Hill Terrace, which are Grade II listed buildings
- The effect of the proposed works and development on the special architectural and historic interest of the curtilage listed boundary wall between 12 Maze Hill and 1 Maze Hill Terrace
- The effect of the development on highway safety
What decided it
The proposal would cause less than substantial but significant harm to designated heritage assets with no public benefits to justify this harm, contrary to the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 and paragraph 199 of the NPPF.
