Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposal would be suitably located having regard to relevant development plan policies concerning the location of housing
- The effect of the proposed development on the adjacent Appleby Magna Conservation Area, the setting of nearby listed buildings and the character and appearance of the wider area
What decided it
The less than substantial harm to the Conservation Area and listed building settings, combined with harm to character and appearance and conflict with the spatial strategy policies, was not outweighed by the public benefits of providing a self-build dwelling.
