Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the appeal site is a suitable location for the proposed development having regard to the spatial strategy of the development plan and the appeal site's accessibility to services and facilities
  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The substantial harm to the character and appearance of the area arising from the development's conflict with the spatial strategy and landscape protection policies of the development plan, which cannot be outweighed by the modest benefits of additional housing or self-build provision.
