Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the location of the development is appropriate having regard to the development plan

What decided it

The location is unsustainable due to significant reliance on the private car and distance from services, placing it in conflict with Policies SS1 and SS2 of the Core Strategy, which cannot be outweighed by the modest housing benefits.

the modest benefits of a single dwelling for housing supply and personal circumstances were outweighed by the clear conflict with development plan policy on sustainability and countryside protection

Framework references: 79, 80

Plan policies cited: Policy SS1, Policy SS2, Policy HO9
