Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the location of the proposed development would be in accordance with the development plan and in a suitable location with regard to the accessibility of services
- the effect of the proposal on the public house, a local community facility
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbours in terms of noise and disturbance
What decided it
The realistic likelihood that the proposal would jeopardise the success of the public house as a business and result in the loss of this valued community facility, which adverse impact significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited housing and economic benefits.
The adverse impacts of the proposal on the public house and the spatial strategy in terms of accessibility of services and facilities significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited social and economic benefits, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
