Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- The effect of the proposal on the Cotswold National Landscape
What decided it
The appeal site's neutral contribution to heritage significance and its location within an already compromised agricultural edge of the RPG, combined with the replacement nature of the building using similar materials and design, meant the proposal would not harm the designated heritage assets or the Cotswold National Landscape.
