What decided it
The significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and the setting of the settlement, arising from the introduction of substantial built development into a rural landscape, significantly and demonstrably outweighed the moderate benefits of housing provision when assessed against the Framework as a whole.
The moderate benefits of housing provision were significantly and demonstrably outweighed by the significant harm to the character and appearance of the area and the setting of the settlement, such that the presumption in favour of sustainable development did not apply.
