Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • Whether there is a requirement for affordable housing

What decided it

The site's relationship with adjoining modern residential development and the indicative layout's compatibility with existing built form meant the proposal would not be an encroachment into the countryside harmful to character and appearance, and the affordable housing threshold was not triggered on the evidence.
