Clarke B

Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development upon the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposed development would represent a self-contained dwelling and, if it would, the suitability of the location for a new dwelling, with specific reference to the spatial strategy in the development plan

What decided it

The proposed conservatory's predominantly glazed, overtly domestic architectural style would harmfully conflict with the retained agricultural character of the existing converted buildings and would be visibly discordant from surrounding vantage points.
