Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of the nearby Grade II listed building, St Johns Priory, and the extent to which it would preserve or enhance the character or appearance of the Castle Cary Conservation Area
What decided it
The small scale and subtle design of the glass room, combined with existing screening and the dominance of St John's Priory as the pre-eminent feature, means the proposal would not harm the special historic significance or setting of the listed building or the Conservation Area.
