Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposal on the setting of the nearby listed building at Nos. 1-3 Daisy Lea, and the character and appearance of the area in general

What decided it

The harm to the setting and significance of the listed building at Nos. 1-3 Daisy Lea, assessed as less than substantial but given great weight under paragraph 205 of the Framework, outweighs the modest public benefits of delivering one additional dwelling.

The less than substantial harm to the setting of the listed building and character and appearance of the area, given great weight under paragraph 205 of the Framework, outweighs the modest public benefits of one additional dwelling and limited economic benefits, such that the proposal does not benefit from the presumption in favour of sustainable development despite the Council's housing delivery falling below 75% of requirement.
