Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including the Stapleton and Frome Valley Conservation Area (CA), within which the site sits
  • whether the proposal would provide adequate living conditions for its occupiers, with regard to outlook, daylight and outdoor amenity space
  • whether the proposal would accord with the spatial strategy of the Development Plan, including in respect of accessibility to services and facilities

What decided it

The less-than-substantial harm to the conservation area and the inadequate living conditions for future occupiers were not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the proposal.

the less-than-substantial harm to the designated heritage asset was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of housing supply, social and economic contribution, and other modest benefits
