Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and the Meon Strategic Gap

What decided it

The adverse impacts of harm to character and appearance and conflict with spatial strategy, afforded very significant weight, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate benefits of housing delivery and affordable housing provision, when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole.
