Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Cultural Industries Quarter Conservation Area
- If there is harm, whether this is outweighed by the public benefits of the proposal
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the designated heritage asset caused by the scale, massing, height, materials and detailing of the proposal was not outweighed by the public benefits, particularly the contribution to housing land supply.
The less than substantial harm to the Cultural Industries Quarter Conservation Area was weighed against the public benefits of housing delivery and economic considerations; the harm was not outweighed by the benefits.
