Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the proposed dwellings would be in a suitable location for housing

What decided it

The appeal site, when experienced in the locality, reads as part of Nesscliffe with a close affinity to the existing built form, and the proposal would enhance countryside vitality by bringing local economic and community benefits without harming character.

The Council's ability to demonstrate in excess of a 5 year housing supply was not a strong enough reason on its own to prevent further development, and the proposal accords with the development plan on its individual planning merits.
