Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal qualifies as an exemption from the mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) and, if not, the implications of this
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area, including whether it would harm the setting of a non-designated heritage asset (NDHA) and whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Glemsford Conservation Area
What decided it
The unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the Glemsford Conservation Area and the setting of the non-designated heritage asset (Greenlawns) outweighed the limited public benefits of the proposal.
Plan policies cited: Policy LP08, Policy LP16, Policy SP09, Policy LP19
