Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the detached garage would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Linton Conservation Area
  • Whether the detached garage would result in the unacceptable loss of trees

What decided it

The replacement of lost trees on a three-for-one basis, combined with retention of the most visually prominent mature trees, would preserve the character and appearance of the conservation area and satisfy biodiversity net gain requirements.
