Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

- whether the proposal would accord with the Council's strategy for climate change
What decided it
The proposed building's excessive massing and height relative to the plot size and neighbouring dwellings would have an incongruous effect on the spacious character and appearance of the countryside area, conflicting with the development plan.
