Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site would represent a suitable location for the proposed development with specific regard to the settlement strategy and the principles of sustainable development
- Whether the development would contribute towards an acceptable mix of housing in the locality
- Whether the development would provide adequate outdoor amenity space for future occupiers
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with the development plan settlement strategy by introducing new residential development outside the defined development limits in the countryside where no policy exception applies, and causes substantial harm to the character and appearance of the rural approach to the village.
The lack of harm to housing mix and adequacy of amenity space did not outweigh the substantial harm caused by the development having regard to the settlement strategy, principles of sustainable development, and harmful effect on character and appearance of the area.
