Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The impact of the proposal upon the open countryside (whether the appeal site is an appropriate location for a replacement dwelling with regard to the relevant local plan policies)
  • Character of the area and visual impact
  • The setting of Stoneythorpe Hall and Stables as designated heritage assets

What decided it

The proposal's location substantially distant from the existing dwelling's curtilage, combined with insufficient environmental justification and harmful impact on the rural setting of designated heritage assets, rendered it contrary to local plan policies and the Framework.

Framework references: 215

Plan policies cited: CS Policy AS.10(f), CS Policy CS.20, CS Policies CS.5, CS Policies CS.9, CS Policy CS.8
