Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- 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 desirability of preserving the setting of the nearby Grade II listed building, No 216 Moulsham Street, the setting of the nearby Locally Listed Buildings Nos 12-13 Moulsham Street, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Baddow Road and River Can Conservation Area
What decided it
The harmful impact on the character and appearance of the conservation area and the setting and significance of nearby listed buildings, which could not be justified by the limited public benefits of the proposal.
