Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal on the significance of the Soberton Pumping Station Conservation Area as a designated heritage asset
- whether the location of the proposed dwellings would form an appropriate reuse of a previously developed site
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan, particularly Policies SD15 and SD25 of the South Downs Local Plan, due to less than substantial harm to the conservation area's significance and failure to constitute an appropriate reuse of a previously developed site in an unsustainable countryside location.
Framework references: 212, 213, 215
Plan policies cited: Policy SD15, Policy SD25, Policy SD1, Policy SD22, Policy SD48
