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 as it relates to the special interest of the nearby Grade I listed building, known as Church of St Mary and All Saints, St Mary's Gate, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Chesterfield Conservation Area
What decided it
The substantial visual harm caused by the kiosk's scale and central location in the street scene, which would distract from views of the Grade I listed building and harm the conservation area, was not outweighed by the modest public benefits of the communications infrastructure and defibrillator provision.
