Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the location of the site would be acceptable for holiday accommodation, having particular regard to the provisions of the development plan and the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the proposed development would be in an accessible location with regard to local services and facilities
  • The effect of the proposed development on the Pilling Moss Biological Heritage Site, with particular regard to the presence of pink footed geese

What decided it

The cumulative harm to the character and appearance of the countryside, inaccessibility to local services and facilities, and unmitigated harm to the Biological Heritage Site and protected species meant the proposal was not sustainable development and conflicted with the development plan.
