Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the siting and appearance of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and, if any harm would occur, whether this is outweighed by the need for the installation to be sited as proposed taking into account any suitable alternatives

What decided it

The applicant failed to demonstrate that less harmful alternative sites had been properly explored, and therefore the need for the installation did not outweigh the visual harm to the character and appearance of the area.

What the Inspector cited

Development plan policies
Policy CSTP22Policy PMD2

How the Inspector dealt with each one is set out in the app, in order: the development plan, national policy, housing land supply, other considerations and the planning balance, beside the letter.
