Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be in a suitable location for housing with regard to development plan policy
- the effect on the character and appearance of the area
- the need for affordable housing
- agricultural land considerations
- the effect on flood risk
- if harm arises, whether this is outweighed by the benefits of the proposal
What decided it
The proposal would not be in a suitable location for housing with regard to development plan policy, would have an unacceptable effect on character and appearance, and would not deliver the required affordable housing, and these matters would outweigh the benefits.
The benefits of housing delivery, economic benefits during construction and future occupier spend, and accessibility to local services were outweighed by the conflict with development plan policies on location, the unacceptable effect on character and appearance, and the failure to secure affordable housing provision.
