Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether or not the proposal is in an accessible location
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Nash Conservation Area
- the effect of the development upon living conditions of future occupiers, particularly from overshadowing
- effects of the development upon social infrastructure
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Nash Conservation Area, attracting great weight, was not outweighed by the public benefit of market housing, giving a clear reason for refusal under Framework paragraph 11(d)(i).
the less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area, given great weight, was not outweighed by the benefit of market housing in an unsuitable, inaccessible location, so the balance tipped against the proposal and the tilted balance under paragraph 11(d)(ii) was not engaged
