Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the development would be located in a suitable location, having regard to the development plan's spatial strategy
  • the effect of the development on the health of future occupiers
  • the effect on protected species

What decided it

The proposal would constitute an unacceptable form of development contrary to the spatial strategy of the development plan, and the absence of an ecological assessment to establish the effect on protected species could not be remedied through conditions in the absence of exceptional circumstances.

the adverse impacts of the proposed development, comprising location contrary to spatial strategy and unresolved protected species concerns, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefit of one additional two-bedroom dwelling, even where paragraph 11 of the Framework was engaged due to lack of five-year housing land supply
