  • Whether the site lies in a sustainable location to accommodate the proposed use as a church hall

What decided it

The site, though outside the settlement boundary, reads as part of the dispersed village and the proposed church hall use is in a sustainable location consistent with national guidance on rural community facilities, therefore the appeal should be allowed.
