Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site is suitable for residential development, having regard to its location, the proposed land use and amount, with particular reference to the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including whether it would preserve or enhance the significance of nearby heritage assets

What decided it

The harmful effect on the character and appearance of the area and failure to preserve or enhance the significance of nearby heritage assets, which would substantially outweigh the limited benefits of providing a single dwelling.

Applying Policy S4 of the Framework, the benefits of approving the development would be substantially outweighed by the adverse effects when assessed against the national decision-making policies in the Framework, particularly Policies DP3, HE4 and HE6.
