Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the development would be in a suitable location having regard to LP policies, the National Planning Policy Framework and accessibility
- Whether the scheme would be inappropriate development in the Green Belt in light of the LP policies and the Framework
What decided it
The proposal's location in a predominantly rural area with inadequate access to services and public transport, which would not accord with the development plan when read as a whole, outweighed the modest benefit of improved Green Belt openness.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- DS3H3GB1
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 149
How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
