- Inspector
- Hughes L
Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would be in an appropriate location with regard to the boundary and built form of the settlement
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the preservation or enhancement of the Nocton Conservation Area (NCA), and the setting of The New Ten Row (TNTR)
- if any harm is found, whether that harm would be outweighed by any benefits of the scheme
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan by locating housing outside the developed footprint of the settlement and causes less than substantial harm to the conservation area and heritage setting that is not outweighed by the limited public benefits.
