Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the significance of a non-designated heritage asset (NDHA)
  • Whether the proposal would preserve the setting of adjacent listed building Nos 6, 7, 8 (Byre Cottage), Tallett Cottage and Scissor Cottage
  • Whether the proposal would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Eastleach Conservation Area (CA)

What decided it

The less than substantial but considerable harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets (the listed building and conservation area) and the non-designated heritage asset, when given great weight in accordance with paragraph 212 of the NPPF, was not outweighed by the modest public benefits of the proposal.

The considerable importance and weight given to the harm to the significance of the designated heritage assets was not outweighed by the small economic and social benefits that the proposal would generate, resulting in dismissal of the appeal.
