Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposal would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt
  • the effect of the proposal on the historic environment, including on Old Pond House, which is a Grade II listed building, and on the Harvel, Meopham Conservation Area

What decided it

The proposal qualifies as a detached extension under paragraph 149(c) of the Framework and would not constitute a disproportionate addition to the original building, whilst preserving the setting and significance of the listed building and conservation area.
