Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development character and appearance of the appeal site and surrounding area, including Husthwaite Conservation Area (the HCA) and nearby listed buildings
- whether a suitable mix of housing is proposed, with regard to development plan policies
What decided it
The less than substantial but significant harm to the setting of Husthwaite Conservation Area was not outweighed by the public benefits of the scheme.
The benefits of housing delivery, affordable housing provision, economic and social benefits and potential refurbishment of Cote House did not outweigh the significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and the setting of the Conservation Area.
