Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal proposal would constitute an acceptable form of development, having regard to i) the provisions of local and national policy in respect of the location of development, ii) the intrinsic character of the surrounding area and iii) nearby trees
- Whether the appeal proposal would i) preserve the settings of the adjacent Grade II* and Grade II listed buildings and ii) preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Everingham Conservation Area
What decided it
The proposal was found to comply with Policy S4's criteria for conversion of a disused rural building without significant alteration and to cause no harm to the settings of nearby listed buildings or the character and appearance of the conservation area.
Having found the proposal accorded with the development plan and identified no harm, the Inspector concluded there were no material considerations indicating the decision should be made other than in accordance with the plan, so the appeal was allowed.
