Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development proposed would constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt, having regard to the National Planning Policy Framework and any relevant development plan policies

- The effect on European Protected Sites
What decided it
The proposal qualified as limited infilling in the village of Wickford and therefore did not constitute inappropriate development in the Green Belt, combined with acceptable noise levels and mitigation for European Protected Sites.

- Development plan policies
- Policy BAS BE12
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.
