Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposal would be in a suitable location
- the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area
- the effect of the proposal on ecology and biodiversity
- the effect of the proposal on highway safety
- the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring residents of Urswick Hall Cottage with regard to outlook and privacy
What decided it
The proposal fails to accord with the development plan as it is located in open countryside outside the settlement boundary and does not meet the exceptional circumstances required by Policy CS1.2, combined with significant adverse harm to character and appearance and insufficient information on ecology and highway safety.
