Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed level of accommodation is appropriate for an annexe and/or whether it would result in a separate unit capable of independent occupation
- The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling having regard to its location in the High Weald National Landscape
What decided it
The proposed extension would result in a separate unit capable of independent occupation that would not be ancillary to the main dwelling in terms of use and scale, and would cause harm to the character and appearance of the High Weald National Landscape.
