Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposal as it relates to the new dwelling on the significance of the agricultural barn, a non-designated heritage asset (NDHA)
- the effect of the proposal as it relates to the domestic garden extension on the character and appearance of the area
What decided it
The moderate harm to the significance of the agricultural barn as a non-designated heritage asset caused by significant alterations and unsympathetic design outweighed the modest housing benefit and was not justified by material considerations.
