Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including the Marshfield Conservation Area and the setting of the nearby Grade II* listed building known as Marshfield House
- the living conditions of the occupiers of Old Vicarage and Fields Afar with particular regard to privacy and outlook
What decided it
The significant harm to the setting of the Grade II* listed building and the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, combined with harm to neighbouring living conditions, could not be justified by the modest public benefits of a single dwelling.
