Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Tring Conservation Area
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the character and appearance of the conservation area caused by the over-designed appearance of the proposed dwelling, which was not outweighed by the housing supply benefits and other material considerations, even when substantial weight was attributed to windfall housing support.
The substantial weight attributed to the benefits of windfall housing delivery and sustainability did not outweigh the great weight that must be given to the less than substantial harm to the conservation area as a designated heritage asset, with no clear and convincing justification for the harm
