Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site is an acceptable location for the development proposed, with particular regard to local character
  • The effect of the proposal on the significance of the nearby scheduled barrow

What decided it

The proposal fails to accord with the development plan by locating new housing in a rural area of scattered buildings rather than an established settlement, and presents an unresolved risk of harm to the significance of a nearby scheduled monument.
