Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location, having regard to the relevant policies of the development plan which seek to manage the location of new development and access to services
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, with regard to the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
What decided it
The proposal conflicts with development plan policies requiring countryside development to meet specific exceptions and to be located with good access to services and sustainable transport, and would cause harm to the character and appearance of the AONB through its overly domestic design appearing incongruous in the rural landscape.
