Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Collingbourne Ducis Conservation Area
- whether the proposed development would preserve the settings of the grade II listed buildings known as 48 High Street and Hope Cottage
What decided it
The less than substantial but nevertheless considerable harm to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area and the settings of the listed buildings could not be justified by the public benefits of housing delivery and previously developed land reuse.
the moderate benefit of providing an additional dwelling and the substantial benefit of reusing previously developed land were insufficient to outweigh the considerable harm to the designated heritage assets, resulting in dismissal
