Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal site would be a suitable location for housing with regard to local and national policies
- Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Lyddington Conservation Area and preserve the setting of nearby listed buildings
What decided it
The considerable importance and weight attached to the less than substantial harm to the Lyddington Conservation Area and the setting of nearby listed buildings was not outweighed by the modest public benefits of the proposal, including self-build provision.
The modest public benefits of housing supply, self-build provision, and local economic support were outweighed by the considerable importance and weight given to the less than substantial harm to the conservation area and listed building settings.
