Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • whether the proposed development represents a self-contained dwelling

What decided it

The adverse effect upon the character and appearance of the surrounding area, caused by the increased built form and urbanising effect in a rural setting, outweighs the finding that the development does not constitute a self-contained dwelling.
