Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the suitability of the location of the appeal site for the proposal, having regard to the local development strategy
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposal on the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site
What decided it
The appeal site is located outside any settlement for development plan purposes and the proposal therefore fails to accord with the local development strategy as set out in LP Policy 3, which steers new housing towards main towns and only permits limited development outside main towns in specific circumstances.
