Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed loss of residential units to form a single dwelling is acceptable having regard to the supply of homes in the area
- whether any benefits of the proposal, including heritage benefits, outweigh the identified harm
What decided it
The considerable weight attached to the harm from the loss of three dwellings, in the context of the Council's housing land supply shortfall and national policy commitment to boosting housing supply, outweighed the significant heritage benefits of the proposal.
The significant heritage benefits to the listed building and conservation area were outweighed by the considerable harm resulting from the loss of three dwellings in a context of housing land supply shortfall.
