Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the appeal site would represent a sustainable location for the type of housing proposed
The effect of the proposed access on highway safety and local character, with particular reference to the junction of Hillside with Felbrigg Road

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan on both sustainability and highway safety grounds, the development plan is up-to-date and consistent with the NPPF, the five-year housing supply is adequate so the tilted balance is not engaged, and the modest housing and economic benefits do not outweigh the conflict with the spatial strategy for sustainable development.

The modest contribution to housing delivery and economic benefits from construction do not outweigh the conflict with the development plan's spatial strategy for securing a sustainable pattern of housing development
