Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the existing property and surrounding area, including whether it preserves the setting of the Grade II listed Broomhouse Farmhouse and farm buildings to the west of Broomhouse Farmhouse
What decided it
The garden room is too large and out of character for its specific location, unacceptably harming the character and appearance of the property and surrounding area and failing to preserve the setting of the Grade II listed building, with no public benefits to offset this less than substantial harm.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- ENV 1ENV 7QOP2HOU9
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 205Paragraph 208Paragraph 16
