Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on the living conditions of local residents, with regard to emissions
- the effect of the development on the settings and significance of the listed buildings of North Burton Hall and the Church of St Cuthbert, as well as the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The substantial weight given to the public benefits of renewable low carbon energy and climate change mitigation, treated as an important public benefit under the Framework, outweighed the very low level of harm to the listed building's significance and limited harm to character and appearance.
The very low level of harm to the significance of North Burton Hall and limited associated harm to the character and appearance of the area were outweighed by the weight attached to the public benefits arising from the development as a source of renewable low carbon energy, satisfying the heritage balance and the overall planning balance under Policy S5.
