Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the disputed condition is reasonable and necessary in order to preserve the character and appearance of the surrounding area including the setting of the National Park and the setting of nearby listed buildings, and in the interests of protecting residential amenity
What decided it
The restriction on permitted development rights is justified and necessary to prevent unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area, the setting of the National Park, and less than substantial harm to the significance of Landford Wood House, with no public benefits to outweigh this harm.
The importance placed within national planning policy on the conservation and enhancement of landscape and scenic beauty of National Parks and the historic environment outweighed the appellants' desire to remove the condition and retain full permitted development rights.
