Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would preserve a grade II listed building, Barn adjoining to west of Farmhouse, Narr Lodge Farm, and any of the features of special architectural or historic interest that it possesses

What decided it

The proposed panels would dominate the characteristic southern roof plane and appear as highly distracting and incongruous modern additions that would fail to preserve the special interest of the listed building, and the limited public benefits from the small-scale renewable energy scheme do not outweigh this heritage harm.
