Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether or not the development plan would support the proposed dwelling in this location
  • the effect of the proposal on highway safety with particular regard to whether or not the proposed access would provide adequate visibility from and of emerging vehicles onto Teignmouth Road
  • the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether or not adequate arrangements would be made for the disposal of surface water

What decided it

The scheme's conflict with the development plan strategy for locating housing in the open countryside and Undeveloped Coast, combined with the failure to demonstrate a safe and suitable vehicular access with adequate visibility, collectively outweighed the personal and social benefits of the proposal.
