Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect that the proposed development would have on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
- the effect that the proposed development would have on the Singleton and Cocking Tunnels Special Area of Conservation (SAC), and protected species and/or their habitats on or near the site
What decided it
The harm to character and appearance and to protected species and their habitats would significantly and demonstrably outweigh the benefits of housing delivery when assessed against the Framework taken as a whole, even in the context of a shortfall in five-year housing land supply.
