Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether or not the consequences of varying/removing the conditions would preserve the Grade II listed building, Norton Place, and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses, and whether its significance as a designated heritage asset would be preserved
What decided it
The proposed variations would cumulatively erode and remove features considered necessary to overcome harm identified in the 2019 appeals, failing to preserve the Grade II listed building and its special architectural or historic interest, with insufficient public benefits to outweigh the great weight given to conservation of designated heritage assets.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- SP1DM1EN3DC19.1
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 189Paragraph 199Paragraph 200Paragraph 202
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.
