Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- The principle of development with particular regard to the accessibility of the site to services and facilities
- The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the proposed development on highway safety
- The effect on the setting of listed buildings
- The effect of the proposed development on protected species
What decided it
The substantial harm to character and appearance, highway safety, and sustainability of location significantly and demonstrably outweighs the modest benefits of providing one dwelling when assessed against the Framework as a whole.
The substantial harm caused by poor access to services and facilities, significant disruption to linear character, and adverse highway safety impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighs the modest social, economic and environmental benefits of one energy-efficient dwelling.
