Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area including the setting and significance of nearby designated and non-designated heritage assets
- highway safety
What decided it
The harm to the setting and significance of the non-designated heritage asset, which the Inspector found to be significant in proportion and not outweighed by the housing supply benefits or private benefits to the appellant.
The moderate and meaningful weight given to the housing benefit (factoring in the supply shortfall) and private benefits to the appellant were outweighed by the heavy weight given to the adverse impacts on the character and appearance of the area and the setting and significance of the non-designated heritage asset, such that the adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefits when assessed against the Framework taken as a whole.
