Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Great Comberton Conservation Area
  • Whether the proposal would preserve the setting of the Grade II* listed St Michaels Church and Grade II listed Church House

What decided it

The moderate level of less than substantial harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets (Church House and St Michael's Church) caused by the prominent siting and scale of the proposed outbuilding was not outweighed by the public benefits of the scheme, contrary to paragraph 212 of the NPPF and local heritage policies.

Framework references: 212

Plan policies cited: SWDP6, SWDP21, SWDP24
