What decided it

The significant harm to the character and appearance of the Halloughton Conservation Area and the rural setting of the village, which was not outweighed by the modest benefits of housing delivery and self-build provision.

The benefits of housing delivery, support for local services, self-build accommodation and economic benefits during construction were outweighed by the considerable harm to the Conservation Area and conflict with development plan policies protecting character and rural character.
