Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effects of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the setting of the Tring Conservation Area and non-designated heritage asset
  • the integrity of the Chilterns Beechwoods Special Area of Conservation

What decided it

The fallback position afforded by the existing prior approval consent for demolition under permitted development rights outweighs the harm arising from loss of the non-designated heritage asset and thus the material consideration outweighs the conflict with the development plan.
