Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would preserve the Grade II listed building or its setting, or any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses; and the extent to which the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Calne Conservation Area
- the consequences of dismissing the appeal on the appellant's living conditions, with particular regard to noise and vibrations from passing vehicles
What decided it
The moderate level of less than substantial harm to the Grade II listed building and harm to the conservation area character, to which considerable importance and weight must be attached under the statutory duty, outweighs the private and modest public benefits of noise reduction.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy 57 of the Wiltshire Core StrategyPolicy 58 of the Wiltshire Core Strategy
