Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the host building and surrounding area bearing in mind the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Old Market Conservation Area and the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting as it relates to the special interest of the nearby Grade II Listed buildings

What decided it

The proposed use of modern UPVC material, which conflicts with the traditional timber-framed character of the conservation area and would cause less than substantial but unacceptable harm to its integrity, outweighs the public benefits of the development.
