Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the traditional agricultural building within the rural landscape

What decided it

The additional openings give the building a more domesticated feel contrary to its agricultural character and undermine the simplicity of the original stable, conflicting with Policy BE1 and NPPF guidance on respecting and responding positively to context.
