Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Glossop Norfolk Square Conservation Area
What decided it
The removal of a notable architectural feature that made a positive contribution to the conservation area, creating a large incongruous gap that eroded the character and appearance, could not be justified by the extremely limited public benefits claimed.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy EQ7
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 205Paragraph 208
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
