Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the location of the proposal would be suitable for housing, and the effect on the character and appearance of the surrounding area

What decided it

The siting of the proposal in open countryside beyond the settlement boundary, extending into the Green Wedge and paddock, would result in a prominent and obtrusive incursion that would significantly harm the character and appearance of the surrounding area contrary to the development plan.
