Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on highway safety
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the local area bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Shrewsbury Conservation Area

What decided it

The less than substantial but considerable harm to the significance of the Shrewsbury Conservation Area through the loss of open space and introduction of built form was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the proposal, including the small contribution to housing supply.

the enduring environmental harm to the heritage asset would not be outweighed by the limited overall public benefits of the scheme, including the small contribution to housing land supply and economic advantages
