Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the appeal site is suitable for a new residential dwelling

What decided it

The appeal site's location outside recognised settlement boundaries with poor access to services and facilities, requiring reliance on private motor vehicles, conflicts with the development plan's strategy for sustainable housing delivery and outweighs the moderate benefits of providing one dwelling.
