Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- whether the site is a suitable location for the proposed development having regard to vehicle movements
What decided it
The proposed development would have a harmful effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding area due to its location, siting and scale within an open agricultural landscape, conflicting with development plan policies and the Framework.
The limited traffic generation and compliance with sustainability policies regarding vehicle movements could not outweigh the significant harm to character and appearance of the rural landscape.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy CP1 of the Hambleton Core Strategy (2007)Policy DP30 of the Hambleton Development Policies (2008)
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 174Paragraph 105
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.
