Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character of the barn and the character and appearance of the local area bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the extent to which the development preserves or enhances the character or appearance of Willingham Conservation Area
  • the living conditions of the occupiers of 9, 11 and 13 Long Lane, 4 Green Street and 64 Church Street, with particular regard to privacy

What decided it

The extensions and alterations to Dogrose Barn failed to preserve or enhance the character or appearance of Willingham Conservation Area and caused harmful overlooking of neighbouring properties, whereas the annexe building was severable and caused no such harm.
