Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would conserve and enhance the landscape and scenic beauty of the Peak District National Park
- The effect of the proposed development on heritage assets
- Whether the proposal would use and supply energy efficiently
What decided it
The proposal would fail to conserve and enhance the landscape and scenic beauty of the Peak District National Park due to the prominent and incongruous siting of the dwelling on rising land, which outweighed the established functional need for agricultural workers' accommodation.
