Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The outbuilding's modest scale, appropriate design, and the significant screening and separation from neighbouring dwellings mean it does not harm the character and appearance of the area, which is the main issue.
