Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, and whether it would preserve the setting of the nearby Grade II* listed building at 34 and 36, Staups Lane, Halifax HX3 7AB

What decided it

The proposal would fail to preserve the setting of the Grade II* listed building Staups House and would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to a designated heritage asset, which public benefits could not outweigh.

The less than substantial harm to the setting of the Grade II* listed building and the character and appearance of the area was not outweighed by the public benefits of providing a single dwelling and repairing a public footpath.
