Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would represent a suitable location for housing, having regard to local and national policy
  • The design of the proposal and its effect on the landscape character of the area
  • The effect of the proposal on biodiversity and ecology
  • The effect of the proposal on highway safety

What decided it

The adverse impacts of inappropriate countryside location, significant landscape harm and unresolved biodiversity concerns significantly and demonstrably outweighed the benefit of housing delivery when assessed against the Framework as a whole.

The significant and demonstrable adverse impacts of the proposal—inappropriate countryside location, significant harm to landscape character, and unresolved biodiversity concerns—outweighed the benefit of delivering seven dwellings and limited economic benefits, when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole.

Framework references: 11, 111, 180

Plan policies cited: Policy 5, Policy 22, Policy 34, Policy 39, Policy 41, Policy 42
