Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on heritage assets
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of new residents with regard to land contamination and noise/odour
- The effect of the development on the living conditions of nearby residents with regard to overshadowing, the overbearing nature and the loss of outlook
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area and the setting of the Listed Building, combined with the limited public benefits of a single dwelling, outweighed by the heritage harm and the unresolved concerns about land contamination and noise/odour.
The less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area and the setting of the Listed Building was weighed against the public benefits of providing a new dwelling and limited economic benefits from construction employment; the heritage harm was not outweighed by these modest benefits.
