Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve the special architectural and historic interest of the Grade II listed building known as Cokes Barn, but also Cokes Cottage, a Grade II listed building, and Cooke's House, a Grade II* listed building, as derived from their setting, and preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the West Burton Conservation Area
  • The effect of the proposal on protected species and protected trees

What decided it

The proposal would cause less than substantial harm to the listed buildings and conservation area through its excessive scale and domestic character, and this harm could not be outweighed by the private benefits offered, particularly in the absence of certainty regarding protected species and trees.
