Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the installation on the character and appearance of the area with particular regard to the setting of a listed building

What decided it

The public benefits of the kiosk, including the defibrillator and services, do not outweigh the less than substantial harm caused to the setting of the adjacent listed building through visual clutter and an overly modern intervention in the traditional street scene.

Development plan policies
Policy EN1Policy EN5
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 212Paragraph 215
