Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site is a suitable location for the proposed development, taking into account the accessibility of the services and facilities by means other than the private vehicle
  • The effect of the proposal on the Undeveloped Coast

What decided it

The proposal conflicts with the overarching spatial strategy of the development plan regarding accessibility and sustainable locations, and causes harmful effects on the Undeveloped Coast that are not outweighed by the identified benefits.

The conflict with development plan policies carries substantial weight and the benefits outlined do not outweigh the harmful effects of the development
