Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would comply with relevant development plan policies relating to the conversion of redundant agricultural buildings outside of defined settlement boundaries to an alternative use
- whether the proposed development would conserve and enhance the landscapes of the National Park
What decided it
The proposed development would involve substantial reconstruction of the Main Barn and would not conserve and enhance the landscapes of the National Park, conflicting with development plan policies and attracting great weight in opposition.
