Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposed development on character and appearance of the host property and the surrounding area
  • The living conditions of the occupiers of Pea Barn
  • Whether the proposed building would be ancillary or incidental to the host property or a separate independent dwelling unit

What decided it

The proposed development would cause unacceptable harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area and to the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, and could function as an independent dwelling unit in the open countryside contrary to the development plan.
