Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal amounts to an appropriate form of development in respect of its location, having regard to the development plan, including to the extent of alteration required and its effect on the immediate setting

What decided it

The structural capability of the barn to support conversion to residential use with only reasonably necessary replacement of external materials, combined with the enhancement of the immediate setting through removal of the lean-to, satisfied the requirements of Policy S4 for countryside conversions.

Plan policies cited: Policy S1, Policy S2, Policy S3, Policy S4, Policy H1, Policy H4, Policy C1, Policy I1, Policy ENV4, Policy ENV6, Policy ENV1
