Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the streetscene and the Bury Town Centre Conservation Area
  • the setting of nearby Listed Buildings, and on non-designated heritage assets
  • pedestrian safety, and the active travel aspirations of the Council
  • the wider strategy for the need for, and provision of, defibrillators throughout the Borough

What decided it

The harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, assessed as less than substantial but of considerable importance and weight, was not outweighed by the public benefits of the proposal.
