Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether the site is a suitable location for the proposed dwelling having regard to development plan and national planning policies
What decided it
The proposal would extend urban form into the countryside beyond the existing extent of the built-up area and would not comply with the cluster policy requirements, thereby conflicting with the development plan's spatial strategy.
The limited benefits of delivering an additional home, supporting local vitality, and providing specialist accommodation for a disabled child were outweighed by the significant harm to the spatial strategy and the environment of the wider area.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- Policy SCLP3.1Policy SCLP3.2Policy SCLP3.3Policy SCLP5.3Policy SCLP5.4
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 79Paragraph 80Paragraph 130Paragraph 174
