Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • with regards to appeal A and appeal B: whether the works would preserve the listed building, or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses
  • with regards to appeal A: the effect of the proposal on the Forest of Bowland National Landscape (NL)

What decided it

The extension's harm to the special architectural interest, plan-form legibility and setting of the listed farmhouse, and to the National Landscape, was not outweighed by the limited and largely private public benefits.

the less than substantial (moderate) harm to the listed building's significance and the small degree of harm to the National Landscape from the proposed extension outweighed the limited, largely private public benefits, whereas the works to Outhouse 3 and the porch caused no harm and were found acceptable
