Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

Whether the development would be located in a suitable location, having regard to the development plan's spatial strategy

What decided it

The proposal would constitute an unacceptable form of development outside the defined development limit of Winterton, contrary to the development plan's spatial strategy and paragraph 80 of the Framework, with the adverse impacts significantly and demonstrably outweighing the limited housing benefits.

The limited benefits of one three-bedroom dwelling and associated socio-economic benefit were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the adverse impacts of locating an isolated dwelling outside the settlement boundary in conflict with the development plan's spatial strategy
