Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the alterations preserve or enhance the setting, character and appearance of the Woodford Bridge Conservation Area and nearby listed buildings
  • The effect of the alterations on the living conditions of occupiers of neighbouring properties in respect of noise

What decided it

The alterations cause less than substantial harm to designated heritage assets which is not outweighed by unsubstantiated claims of public benefit, and therefore conflict with development plan policies and the Framework's requirement to conserve and enhance the historic environment.
