Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The effect of the development proposed on the character and appearance of the area
- Whether safe and suitable access can be achieved for all users
What decided it
The significant harm to rural character and the failure to provide safe and suitable access, which together outweighed the limited benefits of housing provision and economic activity.
The modest benefits of housing provision and economic benefits were insufficient to outweigh the significant harm to rural character and the conflict with highway safety requirements.
