Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the site is suitable for new housing
  • The effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the surrounding area, with particular regard to the conservation area, scheduled monument and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

What decided it

The proposal's location within an established Community Cluster with only a marginal increase over the guideline number of dwellings, combined with its sympathetic design that respects the character of the conservation area and AONB, meant it would not cause unacceptable harm to services, facilities, or the historic and natural environment.
