Reasons 1

The proposed building due to its siting and design would have an unacceptable adverse impact on the character and special qualities of this part of the National Park and would be contrary to Development Policy 12 of the North York Moors Local Development Framework. The Local Planning Authority do not consider that sufficient functional agricultural need currently exists to justify a further building in this location to override the resulting harm to the character of this area and, if approved, would set an undesirable precedent for further intensification of a modest parcel of land leading to the requirement of further buildings to the detriment of the locality and amenities of nearby residential properties.
