What decided it
The proposed barn's agricultural appearance and careful siting in close proximity to existing buildings, combined with screening by trees, ensures it would not harm the character and appearance of the surrounding area or the setting of the Kent Downs National Landscape, and the minimal loss of roadside nature reserve habitat would not harm ecological value.
