Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the site and the surrounding area

What decided it

The incompatibility of the proposed extension's modern, bulky form and complex roof with the traditional, simple character of the host dwelling would result in significant harm to the building's historic appearance and the positive character of the rural settlement.
