Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of Marton Moss
  • Whether the proposed development would be in a suitable location having regard to the health and regeneration of the wider resort

What decided it

The small scale of the development, which is self-limiting due to its size, means the level of harm by way of conflict with local plan policies is not significant, and material considerations justify allowing the appeal despite the development plan conflicts.
