Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Huddersfield Road East Conservation Area, with particular regard to the extraction flue
  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of nearby occupiers with particular regard to noise and disturbance from the use and extraction system

What decided it

The combination of less than substantial but material harm to the conservation area from the extraction flue, which is not outweighed by limited public benefits, and the harm to living conditions of nearby occupiers from noise and disturbance caused by the extended operating hours of the takeaway use.
