Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the South Downs National Park
- whether the appeal site would be suitable for the proposed development, having regard to local planning policies on the location of development
- whether the proposed development would be likely to have a significant effect on the integrity of the Wealden Heaths Phase II Special Protection Area
What decided it
The proposed development meets the exceptional circumstance of an essential need for a countryside location under Policy SD25, would not harm the character and appearance of the South Downs National Park through its landscape-led approach, and would not compromise the protected settlement gap.
