Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the developments meet objectives to promote sustainable development in the countryside
  • The effect of the developments on the living conditions of neighbouring residents, with particular regard to noise and disturbance

What decided it

The developments met the definition of diversification and consolidation of an established rural business under Local Plan Policy ENV6(b), and no material harm to living conditions or highway safety was demonstrated despite the developments being operational for an extended period.

Framework references: 8, 84, 85

Plan policies cited: Policy EG3, Policy EG6, Policy ENV6, Policy DEC4
