Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site represents an appropriate location, having regard to the relevant local and national planning policy for the delivery of housing
  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The site's location outside the development boundary combined with unsustainable travel patterns and significant visual harm to the character and appearance of the countryside meant the adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited housing and economic benefits, even under the tilted balance.

The limited benefits of housing delivery and economic support were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the unsustainable location and visual harm to character and appearance of the countryside
