Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Nether Edge Conservation Area (NECA) and preserve the setting of The Nether Edge Hospital, Kingswood Building, a grade II listed building

What decided it

The conspicuous appearance of the front-facing PV panels on the roof slope, which would harm the setting of the listed building and character of the conservation area, could not be justified by the moderate public benefits of renewable energy and EV charging.
