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 harm to the designated heritage asset (Conservation Area) identified under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework provides a strong reason for refusing the development, which is not outweighed by the modest housing supply benefit.
The modest increase in local housing supply from a single dwelling carries moderate weight but does not clearly outweigh the less-than-substantial harm to the Conservation Area, which carries great weight; the tilted balance under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework is engaged but the heritage harm provides a strong reason for refusal
