Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area having regard to the effect on the setting of The Canal Conservation Area and the Grade II listed canal bridge, and on the non-heritage designated asset (The Bridge public house)
What decided it
The design and construction of the tent is not in keeping with the traditional character of the property and is unsuitable for permanent retention on a building prominently located within the village, constituting an unsympathetic addition that detracts from the character and appearance of the property and area.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy SWDP 21
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
