Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposed development would preserve the Grade II listed buildings (No 29 and No 30 Park Parade) or their settings, and any features of special architectural or historic interest which they possess and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Harrogate Conservation Area
  • Whether the proposed development would provide future occupiers of the proposed dwelling with acceptable living conditions with particular reference to noise and disturbance, outlook and natural light

What decided it

The harm to the setting of the Grade II listed buildings and the conservation area, combined with unacceptable living conditions for future occupiers, could not be justified by the limited public benefits of the scheme.
