Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The development would be harmful to the settlement pattern and spacious character of the edge-of-settlement area, conflicting with development plan policies and the Framework's design and character requirements, and this harm outweighed the limited benefits of two additional dwellings.

The limited benefits from provision of two dwellings, future occupier contributions to local vitality, construction employment and potential biodiversity net gain were outweighed by the adverse impacts on settlement pattern and character when assessed against the development plan and Framework.
