Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site would be a suitable location for new housing having regard to the development strategy for the area

What decided it

The proposed development would result in an unacceptable encroachment of built development into open countryside, adversely affecting rural character, and the provision of self-build plots does not constitute a substantial public benefit sufficient to outweigh this harm given the Council's existing supply of suitable permissions.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy S4Policy SP1Policy SP4Policy HP2
National Planning Policy Framework
Paragraph 11Paragraph 62Paragraph 80Paragraph 182

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
