Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether any harm resulting from the demolition of the non-designated heritage asset would be outweighed by public benefits

What decided it

The public benefits of eight new residential dwellings on a brownfield site in a sustainable location, combined with demonstrated lack of viability for the existing use and no viable alternative use, outweighed the modest local heritage significance of the non-designated heritage asset.
