Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site would be a suitable location for the scheme, having regard to the spatial strategy for the area and to the scheme's effect on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal would cause moderate harm to the character and appearance of the area by introducing built form into open pastureland that provides a rural setting to the mill tower and contributes to the village's distinctive character, and would further exceed the planned distribution of development in the settlement.
