Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The main issue in this appeal is whether there is an essential need for a dwelling to accommodate a rural worker.

What decided it

The Inspector was not persuaded that there was an essential need for a rural worker to live permanently on the site, given the availability of alternative management options.

The conflict with the development plan was not outweighed by any other considerations, including the Framework, so the appeal was dismissed.
