Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it
The proposed development would not harm the setting of the adjacent Grade II listed building as the extended structure would still read as a subservient ancillary outbuilding within a contained setting of traditional structures, and the design respects the existing building's historic character and materials.
