Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The principle of the proposed development with specific regard to whether the existing dwelling is the result of an unauthorised use
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with Policy DP36 because the existing dwelling resulted from unauthorised use, and the extensions would cause less than substantial but uncompensated harm to the setting of a Grade II listed building and the character of the conservation area and national park.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- DP36DP2DP18SP16SP17
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 172
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
