Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would be in a suitable location having regard to the policies of the Wiltshire Core Strategy 2015 and accessibility
  • Its effect on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The adverse impacts of unsuitable location and harm to character and appearance significantly and demonstrably outweighed the modest benefits of a single dwelling, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
