Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the development on the setting of the Grade II listed building known as Cark Manor and the special historical and architectural qualities it possesses and the character and appearance of the area, generally
the effect on the living conditions of the occupants of nearby residential properties with particular reference to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The gazebo's distance from the listed building, substantial screening by existing landscape features, and the ability to control noise and disturbance through conditions restricting hours of use and lighting meant the development would not harm the heritage asset or neighbouring residential amenity.
