Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The acceptability of the development in terms of character and appearance, combined with the housing supply shortfall and the collective benefits of housing delivery, community support, and environmental enhancement, outweighed the conflict with Local Plan policy 5.

The benefits of housing supply, community vitality, economic benefits, and biodiversity enhancements outweighed the conflict with Local Plan policy 5, applying the tilted balance under NPPF paragraph 11(d) due to the Council's inability to demonstrate a five-year housing supply.
