Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the Avening Conservation Area
  • Whether sufficient information has been submitted to demonstrate that the Biodiversity Net Gain objective can be met and discharged

What decided it

The proposal would introduce built form into an area where openness and undeveloped character are key features contributing to the significance of the Conservation Area, and the modest public benefits would not outweigh this less-than-substantial harm to a designated heritage asset.

The less-than-substantial harm to the significance of the Conservation Area was weighed against the public benefits of delivering a single dwelling to address housing land supply shortfall and associated economic and social benefits, but the harm was not outweighed by these benefits.

Framework references: 11
