Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would provide a suitable location for residential development, having regard to the character and setting of the countryside
- The effect of the proposed development on the integrity of the Thames Basin Heath Special Protection Area (the SPA)
- Whether the proposal provides an acceptable means of surface water drainage
What decided it
The inability to secure adequate mitigation measures for the Thames Basin Heath Special Protection Area through a Section 106 Agreement meant the proposal would harm the integrity of the SPA, which outweighed the absence of harm to countryside character.
The benefits of providing a new residential dwelling were outweighed by the harm to the integrity of the Thames Basin Heath Special Protection Area arising from the lack of secured mitigation measures
