Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the location of the proposed development is suitable having regard to the spatial strategy of the development plan
  • The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • Whether the proposal would harm the nearby County Wildlife Site

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the development plan's spatial strategy and would harm the character and appearance of the countryside through increased prominence of built development, with insufficient information to assess impacts on the County Wildlife Site.
