Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, including heritage assets
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to privacy
- whether the development would make adequate provision for biodiversity enhancement
What decided it
The harm to the setting of the designated listed building, which would not be outweighed by public benefits, provided a strong reason for refusal under paragraph 11(d)(i) of the Framework and engaged the exception to the presumption in favour of sustainable development.
the substantial harm to heritage assets and living conditions of neighbours, combined with the absence of public benefits, outweighed the significant weight given to the appellant family's personal circumstances and the modest housing land supply shortfall
