Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the setting of a) the Grade II curtilage listed building Harrys Barn and b) the Grade II listed building Ivy Cottage
  • Whether the proposed development would constitute a suitable residential annexe to meet special family needs, that is ancillary in function, modest in scale and in keeping with the original dwelling

What decided it

The proposal would cause less than substantial but considerable harm to the setting of designated heritage assets, with public benefits insufficient to outweigh this harm under paragraph 202 of the Framework.

Framework references: 199, 202

Plan policies cited: Policy CS5 of the Mid Suffolk Core Strategy, Policy HB1 of the Mid Suffolk Local Plan, Policy H19 of the Mid Suffolk Local Plan, Policy GP1 of the Mid Suffolk Local Plan, Policy SB2 of the Mid Suffolk Local Plan
