Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the host building and whether it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Mousehole Conservation Area
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and distinctive landscape qualities of the Cornwall National Landscape and the West Penwith International Dark Sky Park
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the conservation area and the adverse effects on the national landscape and dark sky designation, to which great weight must be afforded, were not justified by the limited public benefits of the scheme.
The less than substantial harm to the significance of the Mousehole Conservation Area and the adverse effects on the Cornwall National Landscape and Dark Sky Park were not outweighed by the modest public benefits of improved site usability and minimal economic benefit during construction.
