Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

What decided it
The visual effect of the development remains unchanged as there are no alterations to external elevations, and therefore the proposal protects existing landscape character despite technical conflict with one policy criterion.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy HS7
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.
