- Inspector

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal site would be an appropriate location for the proposed development having regard to the spatial strategy and the effect on the countryside
- The effect of the proposal on designated heritage assets
- Whether the proposed size and scale of the resulting annex would be tantamount to the creation of a separate dwelling
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan on three independent grounds: location in the countryside outside the settlement envelope, harmful effect on designated heritage assets without sufficient public benefit justification, and creation of a building capable of functioning as an independent dwelling rather than remaining ancillary to the main house.
