Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be acceptable in principle, with regard to the proposed level of accommodation being appropriate for an annex and whether it would result in a separate unit capable of independent occupation
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, including the Nidderdale National Landscape
What decided it
The proposal would result in a self-contained and separate residential unit occupied independently from the farmhouse, contrary to Policy H8 and guidance on annexes, and would cause harm to the character and appearance of the area including the National Landscape.
