Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether or not the appeal proposal would constitute an acceptable form of development in the open countryside
  • Whether or not acceptable living conditions would be provided for the future occupiers of the proposed dwelling

What decided it

The proposed dwelling would be materially larger than the building it replaces, failing to accord with Policy PG 6 of the LPS, and the access arrangement to the adjacent garage would not provide acceptable living conditions for future occupiers, failing to accord with Policy SE 12 of the CELP.

The benefit of limited weight arising from the provision of one new dwelling would not outweigh the harm identified and the conflict with the development plan

Plan policies cited: Policy PG 6 of the Cheshire East Local Plan Strategy 2017, Policy SE 12 of the CELP, Saved Policy PS8 of the Congleton Borough Local Plan 2005, Policy H6 of the CLP, Policies GR6 and GR7 of the CLP
