Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site is suitable for residential development, having regard to its location, the proposed land use and the amount of development
What decided it
The Council's inability to demonstrate a five-year housing land supply engages the tilted balance, and the benefits of delivering up to 9 dwellings are not significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the limited harm to character and landscape arising from policy conflicts.
The adverse impacts of the proposal, comprising limited harm to village character and minor harm to landscape character from policy conflicts, do not significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of delivering up to 9 new dwellings and associated social and economic benefits, when assessed against the Framework taken as a whole.
