Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether adequate supporting information was submitted in order for the significance of the barn and nearby Listed Buildings to be identified and for the effect of the proposals on them to be assessed
- whether the proposals would preserve the barn, a Grade II Listed Building, and any features of special architectural or historic interest it possesses
- whether the proposed dwelling would have an adequate water supply and suitable drainage facilities
What decided it
The proposals would not preserve the Grade II Listed barn and its special architectural or historic interest due to excessive alterations causing moderate less than substantial harm, with no demonstrated public benefits to outweigh this harm, and failure to demonstrate adequate water supply and drainage.
