Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
  • its effect on ecology

What decided it

The principle of residential development having been established by the extant permission, combined with the proposal's accordance with design and character policies and the tilted balance under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework, outweighed the conflict with out-of-date countryside policies.

The limited weight that can be given to conflict with out-of-date countryside policies does not significantly and demonstrably outweigh the social and economic benefits of the dwellings and ecological enhancements, to which significant weight can be given.
