What decided it
The less-than-substantial harm to the setting of the Grade II listed building Brumby House, which the Inspector found would not be outweighed by the moderate public benefits of providing an additional dwelling in a sustainable location.
The less-than-substantial harm to the setting of Brumby House was weighed against the public benefits of construction employment, provision of a new dwelling in a sustainable location with good access to services, and a nominal increase in housing stock; the harm outweighed the benefits.
