Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt and its effect on openness
- whether it would preserve the character or appearance of the Great Alne Conservation Area, its effect on the setting of the adjacent Grade II listed buildings opposite, its effect on archaeological remains, and whether it would harm the significance of any of these heritage assets
- its effect on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The proposal constitutes inappropriate development in the Green Belt by reason of being materially larger than the building it replaces, and causes less than substantial harm to designated heritage assets that is not outweighed by any public benefits.
