Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal preserves or enhances the character or appearance of the Filey Conservation Area

What decided it

The public benefits of housing supply (in the absence of a 5-year supply), economic benefits and accessibility were outweighed by the less-than-substantial harm to the conservation area, to which great weight must be given
