Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the host dwelling and surrounding area, bearing in mind the special attention that should be paid to the desirability of preserving the setting of the nearby Grade II listed building of Moss Houses Farmhouse

What decided it

The combined use of extensive glazing and timber cladding would create an intrusive, overly modern intervention that would unacceptably undermine the special architectural and historic interest of the listed building and non-designated heritage assets as part of a cohesive pre-industrial farmstead setting.
