Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site is an appropriate location for the proposed development, having particular regard to the effect of safeguarding the countryside

What decided it

The very significant shortfall in large-scale logistics land identified in the draft study, combined with the resilient nature of the logistics sector and substantial job creation potential, outweighed the development plan conflicts and landscape harm.
