Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposal would constitute an appropriate form of development with regard to the provisions of local planning policy in respect of the location of the development and its accessibility

What decided it

The proposal's location in a remote rural area with poor accessibility by a range of transport modes, requiring heavy reliance on private motor vehicles, conflicts significantly with Policies 5 and 27 of the Local Plan and Policy 19 of the neighbourhood plan, and this conflict outweighs the moderate economic and social benefits.

The moderate economic and social benefits of employment and visitor spend did not outweigh the significant harm arising from the conflict with development plan policies on accessibility and sustainability

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy 5Policy 27Policy 1Policy 19 of the St Agnes Neighbourhood Development Plan 2018-2030
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 83Paragraph 8

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
