Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, having particular regard to the setting of a Grade II Listed Building and whether the proposals would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Longparish Conservation Area

What decided it

The development results in less than substantial harm to heritage assets that is not outweighed by the limited public benefit of site security, as other feasible alternatives to the metal fencing and gate have not been adequately explored.
