Good points Beomo and Vulpes - I had forgotten the EH guidance, but they seem to issue new guidance notes every other week at the moment!
Setting is an ill defined and complex area but a solid and robust analysis of what constitutes the setting of a site is critcal to any impact assessment but is rarely done for ESs or even inquiries.
I understood that EH has considered producing guidance on what setting is - but I have heard nothing on this for sometime (probably because there are a number of different opinions etc within EH)
Best of luck with it
