Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • whether the site is an appropriate location for the development proposed having regard to relevant provisions of the development plan
  • the effect of the proposal on the significance of relevant Grade II listed buildings
  • the effect of the proposed development on Special Protection Areas (SPAs) and Ramsar sites

What decided it

The site's good physical relationship to Colchester as a Strategic Urban Settlement and accessibility to services, combined with adequate mitigation for heritage and ecological impacts, justified allowing the appeal despite the location outside Ardleigh's settlement boundary.
