Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site is a suitable location for new housing
  • The effect of the proposal on flood risk
  • The effect of the proposal on a public right of way

What decided it

The location of the proposal outside a settlement boundary, combined with the site's distant relationship to services and facilities resulting in high dependency on private motor vehicles, conflicts with the development plan's locational strategy and sustainable transport objectives, and this harm outweighs the modest benefits of providing one new dwelling.
