Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • living conditions of the occupiers of neighbouring properties, having regard to outlook and privacy

What decided it

The Council's inability to demonstrate a five-year supply of deliverable housing sites engaged the presumption in favour of sustainable development, and the absence of any significant adverse impacts meant the benefits of housing delivery outweighed any concerns.

the benefits of housing delivery and the presumption in favour of sustainable development outweighed the limited scale of the contribution, with no adverse impacts identified that would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits when assessed against the policies in the Framework

Framework references: 11

Plan policies cited: Policy D SP1, Policy D DM1, Policy 1 of the East Preston Neighbourhood Plan, Policy QE SP1, Policy T SP1
