Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site is suitable for residential development, having regard to its location, the proposed land use, and the amount of development

What decided it

The less than substantial harm to the Outstanding Universal Value of the World Heritage Site, which the modest benefits of the proposal could not outweigh, combined with the strong reason for refusal provided by the heritage protection policies in Section 16 of the Framework.

The modest benefits of housing delivery and economic activity were outweighed by the less than substantial harm to the Outstanding Universal Value of the World Heritage Site
