Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site would be a suitable location for residential development with regards to development plan policy
  • The effect on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether sufficient evidence has been submitted regarding archaeology
  • Highway safety
  • The living conditions of nearby residents with regards to disturbance and privacy
  • Other considerations relevant to the planning balance

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with development plan policy regarding location, archaeology and highway safety, and causes significant harm to character and appearance, which together outweigh the benefits of self-build housing provision and other considerations.

The benefits of self-build housing provision, biodiversity net gain and other potential environmental benefits were outweighed by the significant harm to character and appearance, policy conflicts regarding location and highway safety, and insufficient archaeological evidence.
