Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to location of the appeal site within the Tavistock Conservation Area and the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site
  • Whether or not adequate information has been provided in respect of carbon reduction measures
  • The effect of the proposed development on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with particular reference to overlooking and loss of privacy
  • Whether or not adequate information has been provided in respect of surface water drainage

What decided it

The proposed design would cause less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area and non-designated heritage asset, with no public benefits to outweigh this harm in accordance with paragraph 208 of the Framework.

Framework references: 208, 205, 173
