Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area including an Important Open Space
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Hallaton Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed development upon the living conditions of nearby occupiers with regard to outlook
What decided it
The introduction of built form into an Important Open Space would significantly erode the open and verdant character of the area and cause less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area's significance, with insufficient public benefits to justify this harm.
