Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location for new dwellings, having regard to Local and National Planning Policies and to the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The proposal would visually and physically extend the built form of the settlement into the countryside, causing harm to the character and appearance of the surrounding area and conflicting with the development plan's spatial strategy, which outweighs the limited benefits of five additional housing units.

The limited benefits of five additional housing units and economic benefits from construction and future occupant spend were outweighed by the significant conflict with the development plan regarding location of development and harm to character and appearance of the surrounding area.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies: Policy 1Policy 2Policy 3Policy 7Policy 9Policy 21Policy 23
National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 130Paragraph 174
