Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the area having particular regard to the desirability of preserving the setting of the Grade II listed building at the appeal site
What decided it
The development causes less than substantial but considerable harm to the setting of the Grade II listed building with no substantiated public benefits to outweigh that harm, failing to comply with Section 66 of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 and relevant local plan policies.
Framework references: 212, 215
Plan policies cited: Policy DM16, Policy ENV1, Policy SP7, Policy DM15
