Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Carisbrooke Conservation Area
- the effect of the proposed development on the setting and significance of the Grade II listed building, known as 83 and 85 High Street
- the effect of the proposed development on highway safety
What decided it
The less than substantial but considerable harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets (conservation area and listed building) outweighed the moderate public benefits of providing one dwelling, particularly given the additional highway safety concerns.
the harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets and highway safety concerns outweighed the moderate public benefits of housing delivery and economic contribution
