Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the appeal site would be a suitable location for housing with regard to local and national policies
What decided it
The site's location in the countryside outside designated settlement boundaries, combined with its unsustainable access to services and facilities due to the nature of Netherton Lane, means the proposal is contrary to the development plan's spatial housing strategy and cannot be justified despite the appellant's personal circumstances.
