Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effects of the proposal on the character and visual appearance of the local landscape
  • The effect of the proposal on the living conditions of adjoining residential occupiers
  • Whether the removal of the Nissan Hut, which is considered to be a non-designated heritage asset, would lead to unacceptable harm

What decided it

The proposal would cause harm to the character and visual appearance of the local landscape through its urbanising effect and cumulative impact, conflicting with adopted local plan policies, and the limited benefits would not outweigh this harm.
