Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the development proposed on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal would not cause adverse impacts to character and appearance or other material considerations, and benefits from the presumption in favour of sustainable development under paragraph 11(d) of the Framework due to the Council's inability to demonstrate a five-year housing land supply.

The benefits of housing delivery and the presumption in favour of sustainable development outweighed any concerns, as no adverse impacts were identified that would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits when assessed against the Framework taken as a whole

National Planning Policy Framework: Paragraph 11Paragraph 57Paragraph 130
