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.
