- The effect on the qualifying features and integrity of the NCSPA, NCRS, LSPA and LRS
What decided it
The loss of the existing building of negligible architectural merit and the preservation of the conservation area's character and appearance through the proposed development subject to design conditions, combined with effective mitigation of habitat impacts through a Construction Environmental Management Plan and dog-proof fencing.
