Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed change of use on the character and appearance of the area
  • the effect of the proposed change of use on the living conditions of nearby residential occupiers, with particular regard to noise and disturbance
  • the effect of the proposed change of use on highway safety, including the safety of vulnerable road users

What decided it

The absence of adequate information to demonstrate that the proposed 85-pitch caravan and camping use would not result in unacceptable harm to rural character, living conditions of nearby residents, and highway safety on the narrow, vulnerable-user-frequented Naldretts Lane.
