Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the site is an appropriate location for the proposed development having regard to the development strategy and accessibility of services and facilities
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
What decided it
The adverse impacts of the development on character and appearance and the unsuitability of the location significantly and demonstrably outweigh the minimal housing benefits when assessed against the Framework as a whole, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development does not apply.
The adverse impacts of the development in respect of character and appearance and suitability of location significantly and demonstrably outweigh the minimal benefits of a single dwelling when assessed against the policies in the Framework taken as a whole, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development does not apply.
