Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether Condition 3 is necessary and reasonable for the character and appearance of the property and the area, having regard to the setting of the nearby Moor Pool Conservation Area
Whether Condition 6 is necessary and reasonable with regard to the amenity of the area

What decided it

The character and appearance concerns arising from existing brick mismatches on the property and its proximity to the Conservation Area justified retention of Condition 3, while the trees' amenity value could be adequately protected by a modified Condition 6 that removed the most restrictive elements.
