Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development i) preserves the setting of the Grade II listed Old Wharf Building, and ii) preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the Hickling Conservation Area
- The effect of the development on the openness or special character of the designated Local Green Space
What decided it
The harm caused to the significance of the listed building and conservation area by the introduction of sizeable, poor quality structures in a highly sensitive heritage setting outweighs the limited public benefits of the development.
