Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the consequences of varying the conditions would preserve the Grade II listed building known as Milton Green Farmhouse, or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses

What decided it

The scale, massing and extensive glazing of the proposed extension would create a conspicuous and inharmonious addition to the historic barn that would undermine its special architectural and historic interest, and this harm to the designated heritage asset was not outweighed by the limited public benefits of the proposal.

Framework references: 207, 208

Plan policies cited: ENV5, ENV6, DM3, DM47
