Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area
  • whether the proposal would lead to a biodiversity net gain

What decided it

The Inspector concluded there would be no harm to character and appearance or biodiversity, and that the proposal accorded with the development plan as a whole, so the appeal was allowed.

No adverse impacts were found to significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits under the tilted balance (paragraph 11(d)), and in any event the proposal accorded with the development plan as a whole, so permission was granted.
