Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Heytesbury Conservation Area
- whether the proposal would preserve the setting of the Grade I listed Church of St Peter and St Paul
- the effect of the proposed development on the protected Sycamore tree subject to a Tree Preservation Order
What decided it
The great weight required by the Framework and statutory duty to conserve heritage assets could not be outweighed by the private and public benefits of the scheme, given the less than substantial harm identified to the conservation area.
Framework references: 187
Plan policies cited: Core Policy 57, Core Policy 58
