Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the setting of Cononley Conservation Area
  • the effect of the proposal on the setting of the Grade II listed barn (Barn to north of No.62) and the Grade II listed Pear Tree Farmhouse

What decided it

The public benefits of housing delivery in a sustainable location substantially outweigh the less than substantial harm to the setting of the designated heritage assets.

The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Conservation Area and the listed buildings, to which great weight must be given, is outweighed by the substantial public benefits of providing 25 dwellings in a sustainable village location with good transport links.
