Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal proposal accords with local policies seeking to limit the scale of extensions to dwellings outside the Defined Villages in order to protect the locally distinctive character of and avoid an imbalance in the range and mix of housing stock within the New Forest National Park

What decided it

The modest scale and discrete nature of the proposed extension, combined with its sympathetic design and the absence of any harm to the underlying objectives of the local plan policies regarding character protection and housing stock balance, outweighed the technical breach of the 30% floorspace limit.
