Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the principle of the proposed development is acceptable in terms of location
  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The adverse impacts of the development in terms of landscape character and conflict with the housing strategy for the district significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefits, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
