Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the site is a suitable location for housing, having regard to local and national policies
  • the effect of the proposal on the character or appearance of the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (SHAONB)
  • if the site is deemed to not be suitable, or to harm the character or appearance of the SHAONB, whether there are other material considerations that would lead to a determination not in accordance with the development plan

What decided it

The proposal would create an isolated dwelling in the countryside contrary to paragraph 80 of the NPPF and would significantly harm the character and appearance of the SHAONB, with no material considerations sufficient to outweigh these harms.
