Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Fazeley and Bonehill Conservation Area
  • the effect of the development on highway safety due to insufficient parking
  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of the occupiers of nearby properties with particular regard to overlooking and loss of privacy
  • the effect of the development on the living conditions of future occupiers of the development with particular regard to noise and odour

What decided it

The less than substantial harm to the designated heritage asset of the Fazeley and Bonehill Conservation Area, to which considerable importance and great weight must be attached, outweighed the modest public benefits of the scheme.

Framework references: 215

Plan policies cited: Core Policy 3, Core Policy 14, Core Policy 5, BE1, BE2, Policy ST2
