Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether or not the proposal would be appropriate for its countryside location, its character, appearance or openness
- whether or not the site is a sustainable location for the development proposed
- the effect of the proposal on highway safety
- the effect of the proposal on biodiversity
- the effect of the proposal on the historic environment
What decided it
The substantial adverse impacts on countryside character, openness, sustainability and highway safety significantly and demonstrably outweighed the limited benefits of housing delivery in an area of shortfall.
The benefits of housing delivery in an area of substantial shortfall were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the substantial adverse impacts on countryside character, openness, sustainability and highway safety, such that the proposal did not benefit from the presumption in favour of sustainable development.
