Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the proposed development on the open countryside, having particular regard to the effect on the character and appearance of the host building and its suitability for conversion
- Whether the proposed development would provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, with particular regard to bedroom sizes, garden size, outlook and privacy
What decided it
The modest nature of the alterations to the host building, which retained its characteristic rural barn appearance and did not amount to extensive alteration, combined with the provision of acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, meant the proposal complied with the development plan.
