Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the proposed development would conserve and enhance the landscape and natural beauty of the Cornwall AONB
What decided it
The existence of an extant planning permission for a larger replacement dwelling on the site, which would have a greater adverse effect on the AONB, rendered the proposed development neutral by comparison and constituted a material consideration outweighing the limited identified harm.

- Policy 12Policy 23Policy LS1Policy LS2Policy D1Policy MD9Policy MD16Policy SCC9.01
