Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the settings of nearby listed buildings
  • whether the development preserves or enhances the character or appearance of Cheltenham's Central Conservation Area

What decided it

The considerable importance and weight required to be given to harm to designated heritage assets, particularly the multiple impacts on listed building settings and conservation area character, outweighs the moderate weight attributed to the public benefits of supporting the pub's viability and town centre vitality.
