Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The outbuilding's effects upon local character and the surrounding built environment
- The outbuilding's effects upon the living conditions of the neighbouring occupiers, with particular regard to the potential levels of activity, noise and disturbance in the rear garden environment
What decided it
The outbuilding's material harm to local character and failure to respect the surrounding built environment, arising from its substantial scale, bulk and dominance within the rear garden, which conflicts with Policy DC61 and cannot be mitigated by conditions.
The harm to local character and the built environment outweighed the absence of harm to neighbouring living conditions and the absence of objections from local residents.
