Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character and appearance of the Oddington Conservation Area

What decided it

The substantial scale and bulk of the proposed dwellings with first-floor links would create an imposing, dominant building that fails to respect the character and appearance of the Oddington Conservation Area, with no public benefits sufficient to outweigh the less-than-substantial harm to the designated heritage asset.

The less-than-substantial harm to the character and appearance of the Oddington Conservation Area outweighed the personal and limited public benefits of multi-generational living, energy efficiency improvements, and socio-economic benefits.
