Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the deletion of the condition to permit alternative materials to be used on the roof structure of the barn would harm the appearance of the host property and preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Easton on the Hill Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposed use of blue/black slate tiles would undermine the character and appearance of the barn and would not preserve the character or appearance of the conservation area, amounting to less than substantial harm that is not outweighed by the risk of the roof remaining partially unroofed.
