®Planning appeal decision
34 Main Street, Fulford, York, YO10 4PX
Planning appeal 3309624 at 34 Main Street, Fulford, York, YO10 4PX (City of York Council) was dismissed on 19 June 2023 by Inspector Moore D, by written representations. The main issue, as the Inspector framed it: the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the local area bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of the nearby Grade II listed building, 30-32 York Road, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Fulford Village Conservation Area.

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the local area bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of the nearby Grade II listed building, 30-32 York Road, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Fulford Village Conservation Area
- the living conditions of the existing and future occupants of the host dwelling, with regard to outlook and outdoor amenity space
What decided it
The harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets (the Conservation Area and listed building setting) through the subdivision of the historic burgage plot could not be justified by the moderate public benefits offered, and the development would also unacceptably harm the living conditions of the host dwelling's occupants.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- GP1GP10HE2H4aHE4D1D2D4D5
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 199Paragraph 200Paragraph 202Paragraph 197
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.
