Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed use would be in a suitable location with respect to local and national policies
What decided it
The site's inaccessible location served by narrow lanes and the appellant's failure to demonstrate that the dog training business was an established and substantive use requiring on-site overnight accommodation meant the proposal was not in a suitable location with respect to local and national policies.
What the Inspector cited
- Development plan policies
- CS5CS13CS16MD11
- National Planning Policy Framework
- Paragraph 84
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.
