Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the area
- whether the development is in a suitable location having regard to policies relating to agricultural need and development in the countryside
- whether the development complies with local policies with regard to flood risk
What decided it
The development failed to demonstrate agricultural need proportionate to the existing enterprise, caused significant landscape harm, and lacked adequate flood risk assessment, collectively conflicting with the development plan.
Plan policies cited: Core Policy 9, Spatial Policy 3, Core Policy 13, Policy DM8, Core Policy 10
