Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • The effect of the proposal upon the character and appearance of the area, including the Chichester Harbour Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
  • Whether the site is suitably located for the development proposed with regard to the Council's development strategy

What decided it

The proposal would not harm the character and appearance of the area including the AONB, and would not result in isolated development or additional travel, thereby satisfying the objectives of the Council's development strategy despite not strictly according with restrictive countryside policies.
