Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed astro-turf on the setting of 18A Market Place, a Grade II Listed Building
- whether the proposed astro-turf would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Bingham Conservation Area
- the effect of the proposal on the protected Beech tree with regard to drainage and any subsequent effect on the Listed Building and Conservation Area
What decided it
The absence of adequate drainage details and tree protection measures for the protected Beech tree, which would cause harm to the tree and consequently to the setting of the Grade II Listed Building and character of the Conservation Area, outweighed the modest economic benefits of the proposal.
