Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether a sequential approach to site selection has been demonstrated
  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • The effect of the development on the living conditions of nearby residents, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
  • The effect of the development on the safe and efficient operation of the transport network
  • The effect of the development on housing supply

What decided it

The failure to demonstrate a sequential approach to site selection, combined with unacceptable harm to character, living conditions and highway safety, meant the proposal conflicted with the development plan with no material considerations to justify approval.
